Okay, so I wanted to see how fast my Rokon could really go. I’d heard all sorts of things, but I wanted to test it out myself, you know, get some real-world numbers.
Getting Ready
First things first, I made sure my Rokon was in good shape. I checked the tires, and the engine, and made sure all the fluids were topped off. I didn’t want anything going wrong when I was pushing it to the limit. I use some basic tools to checked it.
The Test Run
I found a long, straight stretch of road – had to be safe about this, obviously. No traffic, good visibility, the whole nine yards.I installed a simple equipment to record the data.I took a deep breath and really opened it up. The engine was roaring, and I could feel the wind rushing past me. I held it steady, trying to get every last bit of speed out of that machine.
My Finding
So, after a few runs, and I mean I really pushed it, I found to get a top speed around 35 * a little faster on a perfect day with a tailwind, I’m guessing. But honestly, 35 mph felt pretty darn fast on that thing!
Final Thoughts
It’s not a speed demon, but it, the Rokon, wasn’t really built for pure speed. It’s all about that low-end torque and being able to go anywhere. It’s a cool try!
