characteristics Honda wanted from its sport Side-by-Side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a chassis designed around stability, traction and predictable handling when you're pushing the Talon through demanding terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e28-Inch Tyres \u0026amp; 15-Inch Wheels\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Talon 1000R rolls on aggressive \u003cstrong\u003e28-inch tyres\u003c\/strong\u003e mounted to 15-inch wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe larger tyre package works together with the long-travel suspension and 330mm ground clearance to give the Talon serious capability across rocks, ruts and rough off-road terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFour-Wheel Hydraulic Disc Brakes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerformance isn't much use without the ability to bring it back under control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Talon 1000R features \u003cstrong\u003edual 250mm hydraulic disc brakes at both the front and rear\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonda's Electronic Brakeforce Distribution system helps manage braking performance across all four wheels, providing strong and predictable

1000R.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey provide additional protection from the elements while also incorporating practical storage, cupholders and secure compartments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonda uses a double-latch design to help keep the doors secure and minimise rattling when you're charging across rough
