Funny You should post this. Steve Christini and I have been in negotiations recently. My fear usa the weight in the front of the bike making it have strange handling quirks on"normal" or easy terrain.
A trusted advisor put it best. "You already excel in the nasty, you need something to assist in the open stuff." Hmmmm.

My pictures from the show suck. You can text GET AWD to 10958 and get some specs and video.

I have to say the 300s frame plus fit & finish in general are rough, very rough.
