This document outlines the salient characteristics for two dirt bikes with snow bike conversion capabilities required by the Bureau of Land Management's Lewistown Field Office. The BLM requires a 449cc, fuel injected motorcycle with an aluminum frame no wider than 33 inches and wheelbase less than 59 inches, at least 13 inches of ground clearance, and weighing less than 245 pounds. It must have inverted coil-spring forks with compression and rebound dampening, as well as a rear gas-charged shock with piggyback reservoir and over 12 inches of travel. The front brake should be a single disc with dual piston caliper and the rear a single disc. Additional requirements for the snow bike conversion include pre-bled brakes, chain drive, a minimum track width of 11.5 inches and length of 120 inches, rear travel over 20 inches, and a linkage kit specific to the motorcycle purchased. These dirt bikes will be used for all-season patrol capabilities.
