Also, you cannot easily put a hitch on the TX. I rode dirt bikes north of bell, off Scottsdale road back in the 70's. There were a lot of good places to ride back in those days. We would ride out there all day until it got dark. I left AZ in the early 90's and have not been back. I can only guess what it must look like now... :( [Reply]  [No Email]

With the differential lock, I've never needed anything else. I don't drive it in timber or extremely rough or steep ground, but as a get there from here vehicle, it's great. (Plus the grandkids love it!) [Reply]  [No Email]
