2001 Honda Rancher 350 4X4 Specs & Review
Honda Rancher 350 Review
The release of the new Honda Rancher 350 brought about a change of style along with a new
series of options from which buyers can choose from.
These options varying between optional 4x4 or 2x4, a new electric shift mechanism, or the standard foot shifter.
All of which are powered by a 20.6 HP 329cc OHV engine
which is an improvement upon the previous Fourtrax 282cc. The base price for the Rancher 350 is $5,199 and goes
up from there depending upon the included options. Some basic Rancher 350 specs are included below with a more

When people seek to purchase an ATV whether it be for work purposes or even leisurly riding they are tempted to go out and buy the largest and most powerful machine that they can. This is not always the best or ideal solution, there are a lot of factors that come into play when buying. One of the most important things to keep in mind is that bigger is not always better, but it does mean more expensive! This is where the Rancher 350 comes into play, being as it is versatile, powerful, and smaller in size and weight in comparison to other larger models such as the Foreman 450. Its the perfect all around ATV for those looking to buy something that can handle those long days out on the farm or ranch, but also speed down those smooth or rugged trails on those days off.
When considering the newer Rancher 350 we see new advances in technologies that help bring this ATV one step into the future. The most prominent one being the addition of an electric shift model. The electric shift or ES as it is better known is one of the first and most influential electronical change that Honda has introduced for its ATV lineup. Allowing drivers to choose which gear to be in with the use of a button rather than the standard foot shifting method. This makes the machine all that more accessible to the like of farmers and rough riders who need easy access to shifting when going through bumpy terrain.
Whatever it may be, the Honda Rancher 350 has an answer for it. This is one of the most versatile machines of its time and has something in stored for everyone. I have collected a variety of information and specifications of this new Honda ATV model as well as many others including other models released this year and future years ahead. Alongside this listing is also a listing on repair information for this model including torque specs, common problems, corresponding repairs, and information that is essential to keeping these machines in top condition.
