Wow that would be fun to ride. I am thinking it would be heavy for a dirt bike, but man I still would like to try.

Yeah looks cool,,
But to Hustle a 550 Plus Lb bike thru a rutted chicane or try and get over a
tripple,,,
If the dirt/sand was soft and over 4 Inches thick,,, Can you say "Plow the Field",,

You would need the arms of a Gorilla and the strength of Pop Eye on spinnage to
control it. Prolly just wallow an sink in the ruts.
Would throw one helluva rooster tail tho,,,

That one doesn't have much ground clearance, this one would probably be better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fqgwo_WdyRo

With the custom lightweight frame and exhaust I bet it weighs less than that.
Probably on par with the KTM Super Enuro 950 twin,, at 420lbs
or the BMW HP2 Enduro 1200 twin at 440lbs

Love that bike...

Another Sportie of a different color.






And it weighs about 50 lbs more than a regular quad.
