You stand on 'em like a scooter.  They got around the dunes pretty good.

What a funny post this is.  These guys on their stand up scooters were camped next to us at Coral Pink one weekend.  If I remember correctly the red one had a 400ex quad motor in it and the white one definately had a CR500 motor.

These were hand made 100% custom.  They were on a trip back from the Bonneville Salt Flats testing grounds where they did 103MPH (2005) on the white one two times in a row setting a land speed record for the type of vehicle.  NUTS !!!   :-o

I looked up the records and it looks to be 99MPH (2004).  Check this article  http://www.inventionshow.com/17_inv_community/200409/02_extreme_scooter.asp

Another for 2006  http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/Article_Page.aspx?ArticleID=3932&Page=1

The tires are standard quad rubber and the suspension was pretty good looking for them.  The white one was fast and kicked up a serious roost.  I think my back would end up killing me after about 30 minutes of riding those things since I would be hunched over with no cushy KX5 seat to sit on.

Definately a conversation piece.... Sly

Which video are they in on Sly's page?  I've been watching vids for seems like hours and havent come across them yet.  Oh well... I love the dunes so I'm off to see more vids.  Great site Sly!  Makes me wanna move back to Oregon!
