TRX500FM9
One of Honda’s hardworking machines built to be strong, rugged and to get the job done, the TRX500FM is available in the 2009 year model.

With new styling and a snorkel-like air intake system perfect for water crossings, you’d be hard pressed to find a better, more adaptable machine than this baby when the going gets tough.
