 | Honda Yamaha or ? I am buying a new dirt bike this coming spring I now have an XR 400 bought new in 97 it has been a good bike but is getting old time for a new one I am looking at a WR 450 my buddy has an 06 I like it alot but wonder about the Honda CRF 450x or the KLX 450 also the KTM EXC 525 but I have heard getting parts can be an issue but I like the fact it is street legal for connecting trails I would not ride it on blacktop I have a road bike for that 03 Kaw Nomad .Anyway anybody got an opinion? |
