Just wanted to say that my "05" Rincon is probably well on the way to being broken in. I've just spent a week in the Michigan "UP" outback. There were 13 of us running up there and we managed to score 300+ miles in 4 days of riding.
The Rincon did ok. But only ok. It does not fare well against the 700 fuel injected, or the 700 carb, (those 2 Polaris 700's really dusted me) or the 650 Bombardier (hauling 2 people)which steadily pulled away also. I know this because we lined them up on an abandonded, (Raco Air Force Base) runway up there. The rincon topped out about 54 miles per, and I was even with the 2 500HO polaris in our group. Close to the rear.
So I was a little disappointed. I really thought the Honda would make a better showing. It feels as if it wants to go, but can't quite get there.
The trail ride is very good. But the stock tires gotta go.
Any Ideas? Or is that all I should expect in the way of performance.
