They have wide, aggressive tires, and steer funny in good traction situations. They top out around 30mph. They are kind of like riding a 2 wheel lawn tractor. Those are the downsides. Upsides are the simple lawnmower engine. Easy pull start, hop on and go pretty much anywhere fairly comfortably and put a huge rack on the front and back to haul stuff. I can't ride on road in CA, and live in town right now, so not too much casual use for me, but if I lived on a 5 acre or more lot, I would use it all the time. Anything over 100 yards and I would be time ahead to hop on the Rokon.not to thread jack, but the rokon's look awesome, are they too hardcore for casual use?
