I think of getting some kind of l8ght motorcycle that I could load on my utility trailer and go exploring.
Maybe something between 150cc and 250cc.....weighing no more than 250 pounds.
Not sure I'd want a rough riding dirt bike or a more refined scooter. I would use it mostly off road but on groomed trails rather than rut filled logging roads.....well, most of the time.



Husqvarna makes some interesting light motorcycles

How many towns have Husqvarna motorcycle dealerships? That would be my first concern.


Don seems undecided about a small motorcycle (dirt bike) or a scooter.

A scooter is really not designed for off-road riding, even on groomed
trails. They are designed for on-road use. For his purposes, I'd
stick to a small dirt-bike type motorcycle.

This little guy looks like it would do well on a trail or beating through the woods.

Yup. My point was that a scooter and a motorcycle are two entirely
different riding experiences with different balance issues. A scooter
has a flat platform for your feet whereas the motorcycle has you
straggling it, with legs on either side. I noticed it right away
when riding my little scooter and then hopping on the Suzuki motorcycle.
I wouldn't try off-road riding on the scooter.
