Electric Shift Program (ESP) The convenience of push-button shifting with the rugged design of a conventional ATV transmission—that’s what you get with Honda’s exclusive Electric Shift Program (ESP). Just push one button to upshift and one button to downshift.
It’s a big plus when you’re wearing heavy work boots or overshoes, or riding in mud or snow. An added benefit: you get genuine compression braking for better control when operating in steep terrain. More Powerful Headlights Increased light output (35 watts) along with a redesigned light pattern means improved visibility. Stronger Chassis An all-new frame designed by Honda engineers in Ohio uses Advanced Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) to create the best handling Rancher ever. The new chassis is 20% stiffer, which results in more precise handling while effectively transferring energy through the chassis for a smoother ride. New CV Boots Honda has applied new durable plastic CV-joint boots, both inboard and outboard, so you get significantly improved puncture and tear resistance for longer life and even more trouble-free operation, especially under harsh riding conditions. Front Sealed Bearings By using new, sealed bearings in the steering knuckles, Honda has increased durability.
This is particularly important when riding through mud, in wet weather, or operating in snow. Increased Alternator Output More powerful alternator output means your Rancher can power more accessories, like Honda Honda Genuine winch or heated grips. Depending on the specific Rancher model, output increases up to 21 percent, to a full 481 watts.

Semi-Dry-Sump Engine Design Honda semi-dry-sump and overhead-valve designs give you an engine that’s shorter from top to bottom. The compact engine both lowers the center of gravity and increases ground clearance. Proven Transmission Choices With the Honda Ranchers, you can choose between three different transmissions to fit your specific needs. Choose from a semi-automatic foot-shift manual transmission, Honda push-button Electric Shift Program (ESP), or a fully-automatic five-speed transmission that uses Honda exclusive Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) technology that provides all the strength of a manual transmission with all the convenience of an automatic - with no belts to slip, break or burnout. Rear Swingarm with Enclosed Axle Design The rear swingarm incorporates a new enclosed axle design for increased strength and rigidity.
Honda then took it one step further and added all new rubber bushings in the swingarm pivots for added durability. And when you need to tow a heavy load, the swingarm eliminates rear suspension squat as the load is placed on the axle itself, not on the rear shock.
