Motorcycle & Scooter
Related: About this forumQuestion for the group:
1) Spouse and I are OFTEN deep in the national forests/blm-land etc. Rough and rutted dirt/rock roads
2) We camp in a van, often 30 miles+ from a store, town etc. We find a good spot and set up tarps, a table, chairs, stove, etc.
3) I want to be able to go to the store or into town without tearing down camp...and POSSIBLY (not likely) losing the spot that we found.
4) --Together-- we weigh about 280 lbs
5) Whatever we get would need to be "street legal"
SO...after all that explanation of our scenario...
I would like some recommendations for a motorcycle that is:
A) small enough to put in a fold-up style rack on the back of the van (rack...not trailer)
B) 4 stroke
C) Powerful enough to handle our combined 280 lbs plus some water/groceries/fuel...things we would make a ride into town for
D) It does not have to be FAST, just nimble and RELIABLE
Any suggestions? Anything stand out?
