Picks, pans, boots, shovels, magnetic wand, gold bottles, two detectors with spare batteries + plastic scoops + extra coils in pack, food + water + supplies in bucket, all material secured for bumpy rides over logging roads and remote trails. Gets me to where I want to go, and saves a lot of wear and tear on my 4X4 trucks, plus way better on fuel, and a bullet-proof manual-shift ride to boot that's small and light enough to yard out of trouble by myself, if and when I get into it. :laughing7:

As per the above post by GoldCTX, can't beat the Rokon for tight spaces between trees or for sketchy or narrow trails.

All the best,

My truck is only 2WD so this gets me into the more difficult areas.

Just go my vw based machine street legal. Had a blast in Nevada desert
And Anza Borrego . Not any gold found .
 

I usually bury myself in the desert between 25 and 60 miles off the blacktop using my Tacoma 4x4, then make base camp and from there I use a honda ct110 to get to out of the way areas to detect.

You can't beat the CT90's and CT110's for off road. I have a Red '62-63 c102 and a Yellow '71 CT90 with hi-lo & altitude. Love That Bike for any Hunting! It would go up a tree in low if it could hang on! lol!

I love the CT70's too. It was my 2nd minibike as a kid. Have a few now & am doing one in 12v with a 125 engine now. First one I haven't restored to original. But the CT90's and CT110's can't be beat for off off off road. OLD HONDA FAN HERE!!
