Sidehilling is where the Rokon is going to make it's money vs the quad.

For what it's worth I ended up getting a TW200.  Since it's street legal I can easily go from NF roads to trails etc...

Quick question related to this topic. I have an old Tote Goat that used to be my dads. I have thought about getting it running again but didn't think I could use it anywhere I go hunting. Obviously you can't used motorized transportation on weyco land even though I have been tempted to stick one of those little 50 cc engines on my mountain bike. What lands can you take them off the roads and still be legal? It would be oh so nice for hauling out animals. I included a pic of what it looks like.

I can see it now....

Got your dead yogi sitting-up in the side car, german motorcycle helmet on, driving/riding goggles and a white aviator scarf....on BOTH of you!!

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

Well, yea. Unless your talking about confined trails. Both of the urals rear wheels are powered and you can haul a LOT of meat in the sidecar. I wouldnt want to try packing an elk out on a 2 wheeler myself. A quad or Ural if I cant take the truck. AND, you can still do the speed limit on the interstate with your harvest on the way home.

These things are no joke!

Hunted all early archery season on my TW.  Towed to camp.  Never road where I was not suppose to.  4.5 gallons of gas!  When one of our group got one down someone would go for pack boards and bringem back in a truck.
