[QUOTE="TurtleShifter, post: 170254, member: 217"] But that wouldn't matter with the raw power of a 500cc two-stroke now would it:P Riding in the sand dunes is totally different than riding in any other type of terrain. The tire floated on top as opposed to knifing into the sand like a regular bike would. I could grab a hand full of front brake on the steepest razor back and the bike would still just float down the dune without digging in. Even with the 6" extended swingarm I could wheelie that beast at will. Harder to keep it balanced so I couldn't ride the wheelie as long as a regular bike. It was defiantley unique and fun to ride in the dunes. I could also go on slower rides with the family and still not feel I needed to be riding it at higher speeds as it would just float like I said. I stopped riding my Banshee and would ride this msot of the time.:thumb: [/QUOTE]
