My 120lb "better half" was riding it most of the weekend and with 12-39 gearing the motor spun them just fine.  That PV motor makes decent torque in the lower RPM range which helps too.  Even at 250lbs myself, I had no issues dogging it on big hills.  But I usually run 8-9 paddle 22x11-8's on motors that size and keep some spare sets in the trailer to swap out if needed.

Can't beat the oregon dunes! I've been to glamis twice & it was cool but to me the dunes we have here are the best. Great pictures OJ, hopefully I'll get to meet some of you oregon guys out there sometime.

Agreed.  I've been to a bunch of the sand in the Western USA and Little Sahara / Sand Mountain, Utah is the only area that gives the Oregon dunes some competition.  Don't you live in Oregon too!?  So yeah, it would be fun to get together sometime out on the sand.

I gotta get out there, and sand mountain. It'd be awesome to take a few weeks off and do a full trip to all the dunes.....

Lots of driving for you - guessing 8-10k miles round trip from Michigan.  You could hit Utah first (or last), Glamis, work North (possibly hit Dumont and Pismo), stop in Oregon, then head West to St. Anthony's in Eastern Idaho, and head back home.

It'd be a ton of miles, but what a trip it'd be! Marc [MENTION=124]silverlake250r[/MENTION] had the original idea and I haven't been able to shake it.

I would need to have enough spare parts for a couple bikes, complete motors, etc. I wouldn't want to risk it.

Been to sand mountain, and St Anthony, neat places to ride, cool to see the big dunes and my guess Glamis and Dunmont are similar.  But you just can't beat the variety of riding area we have on the Oregon coast that these other places don't have and it's pretty much 12 months of riding if you want which is a bonus.  I'm more of a fair weather rider anymore but I've been out in a tee shirt in Jan-Feb riding at the coast.  It's a great place.

You don't need any spare parts if you come to Oregon, Tony has the parts for you just make sure you are riding with him.  Haha

Lol oh trust me, I've thought of that haha. But I'm not a fan of bumming big parts.

I'm a pure bred Oregonian, born & raised here in the valley between you & pumashine. Been riding the Oregon dunes since 1985........ Hey pinned, I have tons of spare parts since I recently bought two big parts lots so hurry up & get your arse over here.
