The Honda Rubicon 520 IRS EPS is engineered for those who require enhanced capability without sacrificing comfort. Built with a dependable 518 cc liquid-cooled engine, its longitudinal layout ensures efficient power delivery to the ground. Featuring Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) for a smooth ride over uneven terrain, the Rubicon provides a refined yet hard-working solution for demanding tasks and long days on the trail.
Maximum EfficiencyPowerful liquid-cooled 518 cc engine is longitudinally mounted, allowing direct driveshaft alignment to both the front and rear wheels for maximum drivetrain efficiency. Liquid cooling provides consistent engine operating temperature in extreme conditions for maximum power output and long engine life. |
Broad PowerbandOverhead-valve design provides compact engine dimensions for improved ground clearance while maintaining a broad, easy-to-use powerband. |
Reduced VibrationRubber-cushion engine mounting and gear-driven counter-balancer reduce vibration. |
Easy StartConvenient electric starting gets you going quickly and easily. |
Fuel EfficientProgrammed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) improves power delivery and throttle response, and increases fuel efficiency for extended range. |
Recoil StarterAlso equipped with a recoil starter as back-up. |
Integrated Electric Reverse Shift LeverThe integrated electric reverse shift lever allows you to select reverse without ever taking your hand off the handlebars. You can also by-pass Neutral; D to R which is ideal for plowing or tight maneuvering areas. |
Quiet OperationA sub-chamber in the air cleaner reduces resonant noise for quieter operation. Stainless-steel exhaust system includes a USDA-qualified spark arrester/muffler designed for quiet operation and long-lasting performance. |
Powerful OutputThe high-output 481-watt alternator has extra capacity to help power electrical accessories and to keep personal electronics charged. |
Tackle any Terrain2WD/4WD system offers three drive modes: 2WD; 4WD with torque-sensing front differential; and 4WD with locked front differential to optimize traction. The system also features a Speed Override mode that can be engaged when the front differential is locked to allow increased wheel speed under severe conditions, such as deep mud. |
Strong and LightweightDurable double-cradle steel frame developed with Computer Aided Engineering is sturdy and lightweight for precise handling and a smoother ride. |
Independent Rear Suspension, Excellent HandlingEngineered for enhanced control over rugged terrain, this system features an independent double-wishbone architecture at both ends. With 185 mm (7.3 in) of front travel and 215 mm (8.5 in) of rear travel, the design is optimized for chassis stiffness and predictable handling on unpredictable trails. The rear assembly includes integrated wrap-around guards to help protect components during technical rock crawling, while adjustable spring preload on every shock allows you to customize the ride to suit your cargo and terrain. |
Durable ComfortAggressively styled Maxxis tires provide excellent comfort and traction. Plastic CV joint boots on the front driveshafts are tough and tear-resistant with sealed steering-knuckle bearings for extended durability. |
Strong Stopping PowerDual front hydraulic disc brakes with large 190 mm rotors provide strong stopping power. The brake calipers feature a built-in scraper system that removes mud and snow from inside the front wheel to help prevent build-up of debris between caliper and rim for consistent braking performance. Inboard rear disc brake is mounted on the rear driveshaft, reducing unsprung weight and keeping the disc out of harm’s way in rugged conditions. |
Electric Power Steering (EPS)Our Electric Power Steering (EPS) is both speed- and torque-sensitive and excels at reducing steering effort and kickback through the handlebar. This is a big help when riding in rugged terrain like ruts, rocks, and other challenging environments. |
