Cool, I also saw it on Pawn Stars. I think I like a little more suspension on my off road bikes.

very low geared so they dont move very fast but they will go anywhere, or climb anything. i know when you think off road you think zoom zooom but these things top out at about 10mph. used to know a guy that had one, very interesting concept, he used it to get way back in the woods for deer hunting. i think it would probably climb a brick wall hahahahaha
ENJOY!!!!! NEWT!!!!!

Rokons are great. Go anywhere and track lightly.

Those were very popular for hunting, camping, fishing and ranch work. They worked well enough, but I just can't imagine riding 2 up with a fresh killed buck.
