Princess Auto has those 5 hp mini bikes for sale once in a while. Don't know if that would meet your needs.

What kind of range builds a 1000m range and doesn’t add a road to drive down?

I have seen a couple 250 quads in real nice shape for $750 on facebook, and a very small trailer would be cheap

Princess Auto got these in again. 6.5 HP, 196 cc, front shock, weigh about 130 lbs., $800. I recommend cutting off the throttle stop bolt right away, and modifying or removing the governor.

Sturdy enough for whatever big kids can throw at it.

For more capable back country travel, a torque converter would be a hot upgrade. And in that case, modifying the governor might not be necessary.
