Is this ideal for Devon lanes? confuse

Top speed maybe somewhat limited but it seems capable of climbing steep banks and obstacles with ease.
Two wheel drive also biggrin

why does nobody build a 2x2 motorcycle, very clever idea with the drive shaft through the frame to a flexable cupling to front drive and they made these 40 years ago, neat!

No new 2-trac's yet which is a shame.

We got a devon member down at GT mc's in paignton who has one, i gather they are hard work due to the extra weight from the front hydrolic hub and the pipework running thru the yolk, but good fun.

If either wheels spins more power is put to the other, and if you droip em in gear its quite funny watching both wheels going round.

One came up for sale on Ebay about 8 months ago, only in Minehead. Went for a lot of money!!!! About £8k, I think.
