I just purchased a Honda Pioneer 700-4. I had done much research and knew that there was not enough head clearance for the roll cage and had planned to either remove the cage when transporting or have the cage modified. I was not looking forward to either. My happijack system has the lift braces under the lower bunk that are about 4 inches wide. This was fine for the two Honda quads but a problem for the Pioneer.
I called Happijac this morning to see if smaller brackets were available. They are not, but I found out that they are about a month away from a new bracket for the lower bunk that will allow the bunk/seat to be flipped up or down (I don't know which) and stored on the side of the garage. This opens the clearance to 80" from floor to the bottom of the top bunk. Boy am I anxious to get this mod. I also found that I can remove the bunk/seats to load the Pioneer and reinstall after unloading. I don't like that method as much but either keeps me from having to remove the roll cage and drop it for transport.
I will report as the mod progresses.
I tried to edit the photo and could not get it done so I then tried to delete and could not get that done either so it stays sideways.
