Come meeting our new exhibitors
Rokon
Rokon – The second oldest North American motorcycle manufacturer, just after Harley Davidson. Actually, the Rokon factory is in New Hampshire and the brand has been in production for more than 50 years. This motorcycle is characterized by being the sole true two wheel drive motorcycle ever built. Effectively, it is a 2x2 motorcycle on which the power is transferred to the 2 wheels by a driving shaft that provide equal power to both wheels via a three speed automatic transmission and a planetary gear box (differential). The Rokon puts out enough torque in first gear to provide a pull of 13.3 kN (3 000 lb-force) and can reach 60 km/h in third gear. Also noteworthy, is the TrailBreaker model which has a mass of only 95.5 kg (210 lb) with it’s solid aluminium wheels and has the particular feat of floating on waters... It is not a racer, but an all terrain vehicle that will bring you anywhere you want to go! |
