Interested in giving the 2019 Honda Talon a spin? You can and we will tell you where.
Honda has set up the following events around the country where they will offer demo rides for the new 2019 Honda Talon 1000.

It is unclear how many units will be available for demo or how they will be scheduled. We do know there will be safety requirements for each rider and a designated short course that will most likely be simple in style.

ARE YOU ABLE TO ATTEND?
If you are able to attend please take your camera and report back on the experience.

Please check the official demo schedule here before attending - Honda Powersports Events

Road trip anyone?
Brimstone, East TN has actual demo trail loop, ( real trails) used by both POPO and Yamaha for new product demo rides.

I remember the Pioneer 1000 demo ride I went to in IL in 2015, a horse corral with a 3 ft mound (for excitement) signs cant go over 10 mph, and Mr. McFeely on an ATV as pace car just to make sure.

I know this is an old post. I’ve done quite a bit of research and haven’t found anything out yet. Does anyone know if there are any more of these events coming in the future? Thanks.

Here is the link to all official upcoming events:

Click on details for each event to see if demo rides are available at that venue.
