It's possible but it won't hold up for the kind of riding you do. It will get scratched all to hell in no time and then look like crap, black is the worst, it looks great when it's in good shape but looks like hell when it's scratched up so I would not reccomend it.

It works fine on a Dune only machine with race cut fenders in my experience, but take it from me prepping and painting plastic is a royal pain in the Azz and if you don't do it yourself it ain't cheap. Paint materials are very expensive and the process is labor intensive. For what you would have to pay someone to do it you could buy new plastic in the color of your choice that would hold up better. I don't know what choices you would have with a ute as far as plastic goes as I've never considered doing a Ute.

The station at the corner of Green Hill and 126. First stop light after you get west of Eugene may have propane also.

Oh, I've ridden in the rain and very hard downpours. But for a short couple hour break-in ride I'd rather not. Especially with the technical trail at Walker.
And I must say, I've never "lost" to a Ute!
