Go for the KTM if you’re going to be doing more dirt than road. A v-Strom or similar will be a horrible handful on loose dirt and will likely break if you drop it. KTM will just be a bit vibey on long road stretches.

Honest answer, neither.
Look at the bikes that riders for health (https://www.ridersintl.org/) use. That is the practicality of riding in the area if you want reliability and to get around.

Has anyone experience riding V-Strom or Varedo 650cc bikes on semi rough terrain? Going to Kenya at the end of the month and going to rent a bike to do trails and some road riding, it's either something like the two above, or go all out on a KTM enduro or EXC bike.
