Ummm.... you do realize there are 6 days left on that auction. Not to mention Pilots are collectable.

Actually, no I didn't realize that. Thx for pointing that out. I was browsing through eBay while reading this thread and I saw that auction and thought "hey, for about the same money somebody could have a bad azz duner". Sorry for jumping the gun. I can respect the collectible aspect of the Pilot. 95% of all the toyz on this site are collectible. I did notice quite a few Odessy's up for auction at a reasonable price.

That dune buggy is amazing for sure. Wonder what it will reach in price? But what is odd to me is it has no ground clearance It's right on the ground already. How can it be a dune machine?? Looks more like a flat track racer or something.

That thing is sweet. You have quite the collection of vintage smokers going. How does that compare to, say a newer Razr in terms of power and handling?

The razr's r A LOT heavier and a bit wider too. I have never driven a razr. I at first maybe thought a razr would be more stable from weight but the pilot is lower and lower center of gravity plus more balanced with sitting in the center. It's stock motor and exhaust even and it's very very fast. I was amazed. My friend has a little gps so I'm gonna c what I can get it up to. Lol. I'll let u know.

Wow!! Nice score! Congrats! Quite the collection you're amassing there Tatt... I love it.

$5,655.00 is what the duner sold for.

[petesatc]

honda built 4500 in 1989 and 990 in 1990............

Awesome looking ride!

[TatTooL23]

Wow. That thing is awesome. Please inform me on that long travel rear suspension. I have seen it many times but can't find info on it. What shocks? Where do u get the subframe pieces? How much money? How much travel?

[atc007]

My goodness Pete.. There are NO words... That is just an amazing build. CLAS<CLASS<CLASS. WOW !! THANK YOU , for sharing,,can we see more pics of it,,and your others.. Don't make me grovel...

[TatTooL23]

i have seen that rear set up before. i think Axis makes it, or they r Axis shocks at least.

[rdlsz24]

These things are awesome. Whey did Honda stop making them? Low demand/high price I assume? Or were they another victim of the government? I know Honda's atv models available took a huge plunge around 90

i think it was low demand and sort of expansive back then. but honestly when u drive one and go on trails and ride it all day. its so much fun! it really blows that they stopped making them.
