    Little bikes like that would be super ideal for hunting and fishing trips in remote areas.
    Light weight for lifting over obstacles, very quiet, better than a motorbike trail bike imo.
    If you get trapped in a tight spot, even very soft sand, not too difficult to extract from.

    i can only wheelie a few seconds from a complete stop to start it. I cannot pop the front tire while in motion. The pedal assist function is odd and I might have to turn that off to pop the front tire.

    the bike could rip up a motorcross labyrinth for sure!

    also, speaking of popping tires, but idk if it’s where I live or what but these tires are prone to the smallest of shards causing flats. Since august I’ve gotten 6 flats smh, my dad put slime in the tires now and so far no flats for two months straight (record), I’ve logged 1,800 miles since August.

    The bike is almost too quiet.

    Yes, the battery which looks like a gas tank is removable and also the body of the frame is great for storage.

    out of all the toys I’ve bought in my life, this one has been most fun and worth every dollar.

    I have a neighbor who duck hunts with a Rungu. It's got two front wheels via linkage.

    Ya, I've never seen one if those, only in pics, must be a true bush machine.
    (We say bush, I think Americans call it brush).
    Actually a common term in Australia is going out into the scrub.

    Yeah it sounds like a lot. But I’m usually just riding on the west coast of Oahu. Although I’ll take the bike in the back of my truck to Waikiki/Honolulu area some weekends, I’m usually coasting it in Nanakuli and Wai’anae. Bike has an onboard computer with a small LED screen on the handle bar that feeds the user info and statistics. Can’t believe it’s been almost 2,000 miles already.

    Flat here at 84. I dunno what's going on but I am not holding anything into the weekend. Long some 10000/14000 strangles in NDX for 3/31. Just for the Boogaloo.
