(5) PS (Electric Power Steering)
In This Article...
What is PS on a Honda Rubicon stand for?
After the initial lamp check, the PS (Electric Power Steering) indicator turns back on and stays on until the engine is started. After the initial lamp check, the high coolant temperature indicator and PGM-FI indicator turn back on for a brief period of time before turning off.
INDEPENDENT REAR SUSPENSION (IRS)
Over 8 inches of travel and 9 inches of clearance are available with the Rancher Automatic DCT with Independent Rear Suspension (IRS). This has two significant advantages: first, it keeps your tires in constant touch with the ground for better grip; and second, it provides a smooth ride across unforgiving terrain so you don’t get bruised on the route.
AVAILABLE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS)
Our Electric Power Steering (on Rancher EPS models) excels at minimizing steering effort and kickback through the handlebar and is both speed- and torque-sensitive. When riding through rough terrain like ruts, pebbles, and other difficult terrain, it is quite helpful. The EPS unit’s mounting system is uniquely designed to maximize rigidity and strength.
SHAFT DRIVE
Clean, effective, tested, and little upkeep. For a vehicle like this and riders who log lots of kilometers, shaft drive is the ideal option. On the trail, lubrication or adjustment are never a concern.
SWINGARM REAR SUSPENSION
For robustness and rigidity, the rear swingarm on some Rancher models features an enclosed, solid-axle construction. The swingarm prevents rear suspension squat when towing a big load since the weight is transferred to the axle rather than the rear shock.
Power steering is available on a Honda Foreman?
A versatile quad, the 2011 Honda FourTrax Foreman 4×4 ES with Electric Power Steering TRX500FPE will work hard for you in difficult conditions and will also be a good friend on the weekends.
This ATV may be used for both farming and ranching, and it can also be used for camping and extended wilderness expeditions. The 2011 Honda FourTrax Foreman 4×4 ES with Electric Power Steering TRX500FPE may very well be the only ATV you ever purchase because of its feature-rich design and construction that prioritizes functionality and comfort.
This vehicle has the well-known TraxLok selectable 2/4WD and an automated clutch that syncs up with the electric shifting without causing any power loss between speeds. Honda equipped this ATV with electric power steering to increase enjoyment by reducing fatigue and kickback and facilitating turning at low speeds.
Has power steering been added to the Honda Rubicon?
The Rubicon is available in four trim levels, three of which include Honda’s cutting-edge automatic Dual Clutch Transmission (the fourth has a manual transmission), and power steering is standard on most of them. It has class-leading performance and Honda’s famed dependability.
What does Es on a Honda mean?
- All of FourTraxHonda’s utility ATV models in the lineup go under this general model name. Some people mistake FourTrax with a certain Honda model or for 44, but this is incorrect because FourTrax is used in even 24 models.
* All Utility style ATVs (with racks) have semi-automatic clutches, which are automatic in the sense that there is no clutch to engage.
Let’s utilize the key mentioned above now.
