USED 2002 INGERSOLL RAND PIONEER 1200

Club Car Pioneer 1200 Gas Specifications (with 400cc Kawasaki Engine Option)
The Club Car Pioneer 1200 (produced circa 2001-2004 under Ingersoll Rand ownership) is a compact utility vehicle (UTV) designed for hauling, towing, and light-duty work. It features a standard 351cc Kawasaki FE350 engine (11 hp), but an optional 400cc Kawasaki FE400 engine is available for improved hauling and climbing performance. The FE400 is a 4-cycle, overhead-valve (OHV), single-cylinder, air-cooled engine with a displacement of approximately 401cc, delivering around 13-14 hp (exact output varies by configuration, but it's tuned for torque over the standard model). Below are the key specifications, with notes on the 400cc option where applicable. Chassis, suspension, and body specs are shared across engine variants unless noted.
