What's It Like To Buy And Ride A 1982 Rokon Scout 2WD Bike?

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to buy an old Rokon Scout 2x2 motorbike and thoroughly test it out, then YouTube channel 2Vintage has just the thing for you. This guy likes to get his hands on whatever random bikes strike his fancy—and because he has the skills, tools, and patience to figure out what’s wrong, most of the time, he’s able to score some pretty sweet deals because he’s able to fix things up when necessary. 

This Rokon Scout, though—it’s a little different, and not just because it’s a 2WD bike. As you’ll see at the beginning of the video, it’s clearly running. It’s a 135cc, two-stroke, single-cylinder engine, complete with a teeny, tiny carburetor. The aluminum wheels were constructed to hold a rider’s choice of fuel or water, for those long days outside when you might need one or both of those things.
