Early morning in deer season, frost on the windshield, and a long drive to the back of the property. If you have a cab on your Pioneer 1000, you already block the wind. A heater makes that cab actually comfortable.
SuperATV’s Honda Pioneer 1000 Cab Heater, available at Wild Boar ATV Parts, uses heat from the engine’s cooling system to warm the cab, with controls you can adjust as the day changes.
Features worth knowing
- Adjustable temperature and fan speeds
- 360-degree adjustable vents to aim heat where you want it
- Defrost hoses to help clear the windshield
- High-grade radiator hoses rated from -40°F to 285°F
- All installation hardware included
The heater unit measures 10 x 4.5 x 11.75 inches.
Who benefits most
Hunters are the obvious group. Sitting in a cold machine before daylight and riding out after dark gets old fast. Farmers and ranchers feeding cattle in winter also get a lot of use from a heater. So do people who use their Pioneer for plowing, property checks or work in cold climates. The defrost feature helps with visibility on frosty mornings, which is a safety benefit as well as a comfort one.
Installation notes. This is a real install, so plan a few hours. SuperATV notes that drilling through plastic and the firewall is required, and all necessary bits are included. On Limited Edition models, the lower dash storage unit will need to be removed or modified to make room. Read through the instructions before you start so there are no surprises.
Get the most from it
A heater works best in a cab that is reasonably sealed. Doors, a windshield and a roof keep the warm air in. Make sure your cooling system is in good shape and topped off after the install, and check hose connections after your first few rides.
A heater can also extend your riding season. Instead of parking the Pioneer 1000 when temperatures drop, you can keep using it for chores, hunting and trail rides through the cold months. For many owners, that extra use is what makes the investment worthwhile.
