    Yeah those old Rokons ruled 2 wheel drive and could carry extra fluids of fuel in the wheels My cousins in Co. had one they called the mountain goat. not terribly fast but man could it ever climb

    How can you even ride a bike shaped like that with your butt higher than the handle bars?

    Only rode one once back in the day but they would climb pretty much anything while carrying one of it's own and 2 passengers....There are some YT vids on them doing what they do 2 Wheel ATV maximus! Pretty cool machines and probably why they still make them. Dad looked into getting one for some of the places we use to hunt in up in the Yolla Bolly wilderness. Shear, steep with shale but beautiful and Big Bucks. Had to rent a burrow from the pack train guys to get one of dads off the back side of No. Yolla Bolly one time and even the burrow had a hard time.
