6x6: That 2 cycle is going to have the instant power, that you'll never be able to get from a 4 cycle. The 2001 H.O. is supposed to have 20% more power than the 2000 H.O.. Haven't had a chance to really take it out and run it yet. As far as where I rode when I was in Alaska. I don't really remember. It was some ranch about an hour from the Denali Princess Lodge. Half way between Anchorage, and Fairbanks. It was only for approx. 7 hours, but the scenery was beautiful. Had some big black, even the wife enjoyed the ride at 60. May be I'' post some pictures later on.<P>Phil
