Lisa Bongi reviews the Rokon Motorbike
I got a chance to ride one of these little bikes over the weekend
They’re a little weird - but fun. It takes a moment to get used to having power to both wheels (they’re call 2×2 bikes). They can go places that most bikes can’t. They even float!
My main problem is that they’re so freaking SLOW (something to do with the tiny 348cc engine). The top speed is about 40MPH. Admittedly, that’s about all you want when rock-hopping… but even so…
Of course, these are not toys. They’re supposed to be serious tools for people like Forest Rangers and farmers (I think you can even buy plows that fit these bikes!)
