Waiting for my Quietkat WARRIOR 1000 now, ordered it a month ago should be here anytime also got the 2 wheeled game trailer to pull behind it.With a few options added in cost me about $6000. This will save a lot of work getting game out for sure not to mention getting back farther much easier and faster. Where i hunt we cannot use quads to retrieve anymore and seems like all the elk are always a couple miles or more in.

Yeah I'm not sure either if you can't use a quad I'm guessing you can't use these a lot of money

I don’t believe they are classed as OHV’s and can be used.

The price tags on these are crazy. But I can seen how they would be quite useful and quite controversial with the horse guys.

Hey! Just wondering how your liking your QuietKat so far? What are your thoughts so far? Any regrets, downfalls or liking it pretty good so far? How far can you go on a battery charge and what is the recharge time? Thanks!

The bike is just awesome and made for hunting. It's heavy but you don't notice the weight and pulls a trailer very easy. Only went about 30 miles so far in plus 30 to rain and snow on monday morning rode great in all conditions and never broke a sweat once. Just got the saddle bags on today they will carry lots and they are waterproof. No regrets or problems yet they are a little pricey though i paid $6300 for bike with a upgraded suspension seat, fenders, saddle bags, pannier rack and 2 wheel trailer with suspension springs on it. I had no problem going all day with battery but it depends on terrain, how much throttle you use or what level your power is set on for the pedal assist as for charging it's about 4-6 hours to recharge. This will help out so much to get game back to camp. Should of got one years ago.

I just bought a Volt Yukon ebike
I want to buy a hitch mounted carrier for it but ebike hitch carriers appear to be rare. What are you guys using? I don't want to have it laying down in my truck box.
Lots of bike carrier options but none are rated for a 70# ebike.

I’ve been told by many COs and F&W officers that they are illegal in 400 and 402 or I would have bought one already! I’d like to save my feet also!

You can run quads, dirt bikes and SxS’s but not a bicycle? How many CO’s have told you this?
