This may be it for 2018. Got 11,800 miles on my YXZ 1000 and will put another 10,000 on it. I did a 170 mile ride in my Yamaha today. Yamaha may have a wide ratio trans for 2018 but I doubt it, we will know on the 5th. The 4 set Wolverine will probably have a 850cc Weber engine with belt drive. I hate belt drive.
I'm installing bucket seats in my Pioneer 1000 for my 5 to 6 hour rides. I'm too old to wait on anything and the Yamaha is Fun in the Fast Lane. The Honda Sport models should be great and you young guys can wait another year or so.

Announcement also includes FourTrax Foreman, TRX90X, and Pioneer 500
TORRANCE, CA – August 22, 2017 – (Motor Sports Newswire) – In its final four-wheel powersports new-model announcement of the year, the leading manufacturer of multipurpose ATVs today unveiled four 2018 models, including the family of FourTrax® Ranchers®—America’s best-selling line of ATVs. At the same time, Honda announced the hard-working FourTrax Foreman®, the sporty TRX90X, and the Pioneer 500 side-by-side.
Pioneer 500
This no-nonsense side-by-side is both beginner-friendly and expertly tuned; it can be easily operated by a first-time side-by-side owner and still be enjoyed by an experienced pilot. In the dirt, its longitudinally mounted four-stroke engine allows for comfortable cruising, while the automatic five-speed (plus reverse) gearbox can be operated in both automatic and manual modes for superb ascending, skillful rock crawling, and dependable exploration. Although compact in design to fit easily in garages, full-size pickup-truck beds, and narrow trails, the Pioneer 500’s 8.5-inch ground clearance and 450-pound payload capacity are nothing to scoff at. For those unsure where to begin the journey into the world of off-road recreation or work, the capable Pioneer 500 is a great place to start.
