Taken even a step further. Hook this up to a KTM quad to trike conversion (with a 400 2-stroke powerplant) and you'd hava a real 3X3 all-wheel-drive 3-wheeler. The absolute ultimate ATV ever produced:http://www.gizmag.com/go/3180/

here is a company that makes there bikes 2wd really neat wonder if it handles much differently?

[Chazz of Blades]

You know the front wheel has to spin ever to slightly faster than the back, otherwise it doesn't handle, you just die.

^I'm sure KTM has incorporated a way to do that. I know the chain drive motorcycle in the OP has a system that allows the front wheel to spin faster in turns.

I don't know, it seems kinda odd to go 2wd with a motorcycle. I can understand if it had 4 wheels, but otherwise the rear wheel drive only has seemed to work very well for a long time...

[Chazz of Blades]

Indeed, I can see the uses of a 2wd bike like the ROKON, short, heavy duty, and meant to go over terrain that any normal thing wouldn't touch. Like a mud bike.


But a race bike? No.

Are you thinking of getting it? Looks in decent shape and the price seems fair.

[Ironbnder]

Not for me. If I had an extra $1200, I would add another trike to my signature!

There is a guy running a two wheel drive on the enduro cross circuit, with a recluse clutch it seems to work good crawling through the rocks but seems to slow him down on the rest of the course...
