[QUOTE="sierrastalker, post: 2761479, member: 125664"] I run a TW200, but it's mostly for access to shorten the hike in/out. I'll ride it up a trail to the wilderness boundary (maybe 10 miles?) then park it there and start hiking, often another 10 miles off. It really helps me get away from the crowds. I haven't had a problem with not being able to get up a hill due to power, as one other poster mentioned, but it's also not going to go fast. It's always hauled me, my gear and kill. I've also never tried to haul an elk on it. For that you could just take more than one trip, though, which we end up doing on foot most of the time anyhow. It's not great in snow - it's a motorcycle! As others mentioned, it's more about the application. I've also got a couple other bikes (KTM 500, DRZ400) and wouldn't even consider using them for hunting due to the very high seat height. Having an animal on there could be pretty awkward. Another good thing about the TW is that it's also useful in everyday life, so it's not just sitting in your garage when you're not out in the woods. I ride mine to work, around town, and just take it out trail riding with some buddies that also have TW's. I've also got an ebike I built that's way more powerful than any factory built bikes, and it's not even up for comparison to the TW - the TW is more useful in every situation for me, unless being quiet is the most important thing. But - to each their own and everyone finds what works for them and their application. [/QUOTE]
