Rider Profile

Best For	This is a machine for patient, mechanically curious riders rather than speed seekers, since it behaves more like a motorized pack mule than a conventional motorcycle.
Purpose	It exists purely to haul gear and riders over extremely rough, roadless terrain at a crawl, using two-wheel drive traction rather than horsepower to get the job done.
Rider Fit	Riding it well demands balance and low-speed bike-handling skill more than strength, though its unusual twin-wheel-drive feel and lack of rear suspension take some getting used to.
Character	It has a rugged, utilitarian, almost tractor-like personality, prioritizing unstoppable traction and simplicity over comfort, speed, or refinement.
Not Ideal For	It is not for anyone wanting highway capability, cornering agility, plush comfort, or any kind of speed, since it tops out near 56 mph and makes only 7 horsepower.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 787mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2017 Rokon Scout, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
