2011 Honda FourTrax Foreman 4X4 ES with Power Steering TRX500FPE

The 2011 Honda FourTrax Foreman 4X4 ES with Power Steering TRX500FPE is built to handle the toughest jobs, of course. But when the work is done and the weekend dawns, the Foreman can't wait to show you its fun-loving side. No matter how you use your Foreman, you'll love its powerful 475 cc air-cooled engine that churns out torque low in the rev range yet also has exciting top-end performance thanks in part to its hemispherical combustion chamber. A precise foot-shift transmission, easily switchable 2WD/4WD, stable yet comfortable suspension, and specially designed front disc brakes with thick, long-life brake pads, all combine to make your work more productive, and your play way more fun.

To build a great workhorse ATV, we start with the heart

The FourTrax Foreman 4x4 is built around our strong, single-cylinder, 475cc longitudinal engine. By orienting the crankshaft front-to-back in the chassis, we route the flow of power straight to the wheels without any right-angle detours, reducing power-train friction and putting more grunt to the ground. Hey, it's a Honda. You wouldn't expect anything less.

FourTrax Foreman 4x4/FourTrax Foreman 4x4 with Electric Power Steering

This powerful and rugged 4x4 ATV mates a reliable manual-shift gearbox to a time-tested air-cooled 475cc OHV engine--it's Honda quality at its best. And you have the choice of standard steering or the ease of Electric Power Steering (EPS).

Your weekly list of chores isn’t getting easier, so why would you opt for an ATV that isn’t up to the job? Enter the Honda FourTrax Foreman 4x4, a tough-as-nails machine that’s one of the hardest-working ATVs in our Utility lineup, featuring a beefy 475cc, longitudinally mounted single armed with heaps of task-tackling torque. Our exclusive, electronic, shift-on-the-fly TraxLok® selectable 2WD/4WD system. And optional, push-button Electric Shift Program (ESP) and Electric Power Steering (EPS) to help make your work that much easier.

And for the record, after you’ve put away your tools, the Foreman 4x4 loves to play just as hard as it works.

When you're riding the best ATV on the planet, only the best accessories will do—Honda Genuine Accessories. These accessories are designed specifically for your Honda vehicle and feature the same quality and durability you’ve come to expect from Honda.

Semi-Dry-Sump Engine Design - Compact and lighter-weight, the Foreman 4x4's semi-dry sump and overhead valve designs create an engine that's not only shorter from top to bottom, but one that enhances handling by lowering the center of gravity while increasing ground clearance as well.

Advanced Front Suspension - With its independent double-wishbone design, the Foreman 4x4's front suspension—featuring KYB shocks with 6.7" of travel—allows each wheel to react separately over rough or uneven terrain, thus ensuring a smoother, more controlled ride.

Electric Power Steering (EPS) - Both speed- and torque-sensitive, Honda's Electric Power Steering (EPS) excels at reducing both steering effort and kickback through the handlebar.

Electric Shift Program (ESP) - Flicking between gears should always be this easy. With Honda's unique ESP system, up- and downshifting is as simple and fast as pushing one of two handlebar-mounted buttons. ESP is also a bonus when riding in heavy or mud/snow-covered boots.

TraxLok® - This shift-on-the-fly system lets you toggle between 2WD and 4WD, giving you the freedom to take advantage of lighter steering (in 2WD) and maximum traction (4WD) when you need it most.
