for a NEWER one!!
I went to a Rokon ride in and campout two weekends ago with my 1984 Rokon Mototractor 2stroke unit. I have not been able to keep that 2 stroke motor going and running reliably. I just do not know enough about two stroke motors. Well, I took with me one of the old Rokon frames and tire / wheel combo's that I had up for sale here a while back. At the ride in I met and visited with ORLA, the founder of the Rokon co and a bunch of guys who LOVE Rokons (for good reason, IMV) including a guy who has designed and sells hydraulic brake kits for these units. Well, jumping to the current, I was able to trade my '84 2 stroke unit combined with the old extra frame and tire wheel stuff for a '97 Rokon with a 6.5HP Honda 4 stroke model WITH the hydraulic brake upgrade already installed! NOW, I have the off road critter hauler that Ihave needed. The founder of the Rokon Company is now 80 but still travels all over the country and camps out in the back of his Subabru 4x wagon and goes on all day backcountry Rokon rides. I hope I am as active and healthy at 80 as Orla is!!! A great weekend and trade for me. Dont discount a Rokon for your ORV if you live in an area with lots of trees to negotiate through or desire a vehicle that will not kill or cripple you if it falls on you. Great on sidehills as well!
