SHOT Show 2020: Rokon

[@dsummit]

I like the owner he gets right to the point.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

*thumbs up*

[@nbmooselovers]

I agree! Its great to see the President of the company spending his time to promote his product. Gives me much more confidence in the quality that went into it! Gonna have one soon! He also showed off the bike on Jay lenos Garage Channel as well. Great video.

[@petermashak3341]

Bought one about 15 years ago. Never had to spend a dime on it, except maintenance. Great machine!

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

Right on!

[@TomokosEnterprize]

I had one of these years ago. I have always thought I should have never sold it. They are really good, tough tools.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

I'm trying to convince the wife to let me get one

[@TomokosEnterprize]

@@innerbarkoutdoors They are ok around town but really are made for in the bush. I remember mine could climb a tree if the bark would stay on, LOL. Definitely somewhere around 30 or 40 mph is about all they want to do so no freeways my friend.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

@@TomokosEnterprize I'm thinking of it's climbing ability for the cabin property. Got lots of work it could do there

[@TomokosEnterprize]

@@innerbarkoutdoors You bet bud. Fill up the water reservoirs and they will skid logs all day long with no complaints. Have the wife pull just one stick and see how fast she cuts lose the funds to get that beauty. LOL.

[@raghavsonar2092]

Hey will you give me some extrq information about this bike ???plz

[@littlefarmer32]

Helga Pedersen did the dairian gap on his BMW bike, “10 Years on 2 Wheels”

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

When I used to work with Your tech, I always admired the beat up BMWs in their showroom. It was cool looking at the repair jobs the riders made while in other countries.

[@bakupcpu]

Great machine indeed! I have one and they are great! Also give you a great workout in the snow.... I've manage to get it stuck in 3 foots on snow with a hard crust. I love mine and even if going 20km an hour is my max speed in the snowy trail I enjoy all of it! Keep the great build! Cheers from Manitoba Canada.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

*thumbs up* Would love too own one ONE day - but the wife has other ideas :(

[@bakupcpu]

@@innerbarkoutdoors it happen! Doesn't matter which machine you ride on as long as it does what you need it to do and you enjoy riding it. Cheers!

[@markespinoza7090]

Bad ass. I want one. However Land Rovers and Jeeps have also crossed the Darien gap.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

*thumbs up*

[@vernonbennettiii3646]

I want one!

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

Same

[@getprobed838]

does it have innertubes or are they tubeless tires? i saw a videos the guys put different tires on one and they used tubes. for some reason i though the were tubeless.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

You could probably go either way depending on your preferred flavor

[@johnwebb7882]

Can the extended rear cargo rack fit the Rokon for hunters? The seat looks bigger.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

Not to sure bud, sorry

[@raydornbush]

I happen to own one of these awesome motorcycles and my only complaint about them so far is that I wish there was a different way to transmit power from the engine to the transmission or at least a more sturdy reliable way. From my experience and hearing/reading other people's experiences the torque converter going into the driven clutch tends to spin the belt continuously even at idle when it shouldn't. It would be nice if this problem was actually on Tom blais radar and that there would be an actual fix for it... alas I don't think it's going to be coming anytime soon just going to have to be content with tinkering and modifying it ourselves somehow I guess.

[@ronaldsauber258]

Like its grabbing at idle?

[@rawsonforever]

That problem was solved years back with an after market Driven Pulley Brake supplied by Warlord Six on Rokon World. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4m2fYOFl6eomdk

[@rawsonforever]

@@ronaldsauber258 It uses a belt driven torque converter drive. No hand clutch. Three speed hand operated plunger transmission with no synchromesh. You have to stop, let it get down to idle then shift. Fortunately it will handle most anything in 2nd gear so don't have to shift often. Had one for years till I got to old and shaky to be on two wheels. Great machine.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

*thumbs up*

[@raydreamer7566]

Why is it desirable to disconnect the front wheel from the drive system when turning ? ? ?

[@samuelmandarelli2645]

Wish they had one more gear for road speeds…

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

*thumbs up*

[@CLP2102]

worth every penny. love mine

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

*thumbs up*

[@richdallmeyer9616]

Not sure emphasis on preppers/would-be military is so wise. Likewise, although demos on snow are dramatic, sheer utility on bare ground/rock is where work is done. I'm thinking of a Rokon as a tool for my extended family, wife, 2 sons, 2 daughters, all married, grandkids.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

*thumbs up* Good point!

[@jlaw8232]

I bet you feel differently a year later!

[@waynegallant9056]

can i visit your plant 2 stroke mountian bike thanksm and cheers

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

*thumbs up*

[@aretnap3653]

They Should Make a *KOHLER V-Twin Motor'd Version!*

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

Yes!

[@Rokon-khan11]

My name is ROKON

He Did TheSame Presentation When JayLeno Rode TheBike. (There's a KZbinVid.)

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

[@kloss213]

Had a street-legal one with a sidecar. Good stuff.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

How cool would it be for the sidecar to have power as well?

[@billallen4793]

@@innerbarkoutdoors it wouldnt take much! Especially when you have a pto to use...from Wyoming USA 🔫🤠🇺🇸p.s stay safe and healthy everybody GOD BLESS OUR COUNTRY

[@SouthWestIron]

I've had my eye on the Rokon's for a longtime! One of these days for sure. For now my trusty KLR650 will have to do.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

This is the first time I've seen one and .... I likey

[@SouthWestIron]

@@innerbarkoutdoors Well one thing is for sure they hold their value. Even ones that are decades old.

[@bakupcpu]

Same for me and I finally bought one and LOVE it!

[@bakupcpu]

@@innerbarkoutdoors Simple get her one as well easy! They are amazing but they are not fast. Cheers!

[@SouthWestIron]

@@bakupcpu That's awesome. I have a KLR650 but I'd definitely like to add a Rokon to the stable.

[@jamesbedell5787]

Are these Kohler motors now made in China?

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

The small engines are, not sure if this qualifies as "small" or not.

[@johnfuller6338]

Do they make a street legal model or is it in a future project.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

They have a model that is street legal, but keep in mind that the top speed is about 35 mph

[@tonym.2458]

Of course the Rokon Ranger isnt California legal.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

That's lame AF

[@hillbillysportsman5818]

Tony M. Checkout jay leno video on them. He is riding it on roads in California.

[@jaywinters2483]

ROKON uses a Kohler engine MADE IN CHINA!

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

Ok

[@geraldmiller5260]

Decals and not painted names looks cheap and not quality.

[@lpd1snipe]

My father had one of these in 1972 he used it for hunting and going in the woods. It was indestructible.

[@innerbarkoutdoors]

I have to agree with 1Energine1 - I have heard nothing but great great things about this company and their products being a beast! I personally don't care if something looks "cheap", as long as it does what It say's it will. That's also prob why I dont mind buying things second hand from craigslist even if they are rusty and scratched, if it preforms I'm down.
