All I know about the electric shift Honda is that they don’t make a very good ice fishing atv. They don’t start in the cold and they don’t shift in the cold.
My 2016 rancher wouldn’t start on a negative 10 degree morning one time . Battery was good . Just cranked and cranked . Never had an issue ever – fresh premium gas . Called a guy he said put a new spark plug in it . Took the old out and it looked damn good to me ? Not fouled up like an old 2 stroke sled . Put a new plug in fired right up . I couldn’t hardly believe it . Makes zero sense to me but it worked . I would have bet my paycheck that plug I took out would have worked .
