if you set yourself up with a full suspension, low pressure tire, fat tire bike with a shock mounted seat I think it would help you allot. all three of those options would help soften the ride individually but if you built a bike with all three it would become a pillow on wheels.

So when I lived in the PNW there was this rally called Gambler 500 where people take the biggest POS vehicle and take it off road. It was a combination of comedy and humility as everyone cheers everyone on, no matter how bad their vehicle is. (The worse the vehicle, the more pumped people become) I think the originator off roaded a 1977 Cadillac Seville or something crazy like that.

Fast forward to today, and I just learned there is a Florida chapter of the Gambler 500 includes a group of "Gamblers" that take mini bikes off road on an over night trek through forest roads. I have to admit it looks fun, and I routinely take my DB30 off-road messing around with the neighbor kids on their dirt bikes.


At this point it just looks like too much fun.
