Rokon Motorcycle

For some reason I think I "need" a Rokon. Does anyone own one? How do you like it? I currently own a XR650R street legal for off road speed. I'm thinking the Rokon would be better for hunting and exploring than a atv, four wheeler.

The Rokon is a 2 wheel drive off road motorcycle. It has small tractor tires front and rear, chain drive. Runs a small 4 to 6 horsepower two cycle. Newer models are now running small four strokes. It is suppose to float if the water gets to deep to drive though. Top speed is only maybe 35mph, but are suppose to be able to go any place. I guess they have been in production for over 40 years.
There was a Rokon motorcycle also produced in the late 60's that did look like a hodaka. I'm interested in the 2 wheel drive version. Sorry about the confusion.

Chuck641 sounds great, I'm not having much luck finding a used Rokon. Been looking on Traderonline, E-bay, and all the local shoppers I can find. I'm located near the Eau Claire WI. Probably to far away to work out a deal in New York. Thanks anyway.
