Farley Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 ok... i think this thing would be insane to ride..... but wouldnt haveing power to the front wheel make it more prone to wash out in hard cornering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 the AMA outlawed 2WD dirt bikes about 5 or 6 years ago as there is a company modifying them over seas. its pretty sick and would be awesome in the dirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trouble Maker Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 Bet it's a fluid pump system, only thing that I think would easily work... i'll edit this once I watch it. EDIT: Yup it was. AJ, IIRC KTM was the one that was making the 2WD dirt bikes. Then they stopped making them after the AMA outlawed them. They were also using a hydraulic pump system. There are actually 4wd vehicle systems that use fluid pumps and lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
