I guess they're pretty nice for trails and groomed stuff, not ideal for powdery hillclimbs, they tend to bury themselves pretty good.


Makes use of the bigger high HP 4strokes, some guys are using bored and stroked 450's approaching almost 600cc

Yup, seen those. I guess they don't ride ANYTHING like a MX/Enduro bike and take some time to get used to for a bike rider. Still pretty cool. With a garage full of mx and trail bikes these conversion kits for what I already have make it almost a no-brainer. Now if I was closer to a dealer

I forget which one, or maybe both were set up and displaying their stuff last year @ Aspen/Snowmass...not sure if they were demoing or not

2Moto will be @ this years WinterX games and offering Demo rides. I think you have to email to get your name on the list.
