eBay Auction of the Day: 1999 Rokon Ranger
Written By: Seyth Miersma
It’s generally difficult to ascribe the word “tough” to a motorcycle with an engine measuring just 160cc of displacement, but tough is exactly what this Rokon Ranger from eBay Motors is.
Just look at it. Standing only about three feet high, with huge knobby tires, and a frame that could’ve been sourced from an unfortunate John Deere accident, the Rokon is all business. The little bike was purpose built for brutal, if slow, off-roading, and the bare-bones sidecar only adds to its rustic charm.
We can’t think of a bike we’d rather take into the wild, preferably with an old dog and a cooler full of cold beverages. Neither can the seller apparently, as he’s unwilling to ship this little beast, and seems particularly gruff in response to questions. We wouldn’t want to sell it either.
