  • My goal over the next year is to try various bikes until something clicks. Currently have the street scrambler which will be used for all the B roads around here for the next few months and then will swap for something different.

    Next on the list is a dual sport/enduro bike, living next to Salisbury plains means there is plenty of BOATs to explore.

    Is buying a 250/350 4 stroke KTM or Husqvarna a bad idea? I'll probably have to employ an armed guard outside my garage but I'm more thinking about servicing etc.

  • I'm not hugely experienced but test rode quite a few bikes before I tried the CRF300L. And immediately got that "click" you're talking about. Just knew immediately I'd enjoy riding it.

    If you're a more experienced rider it might not give you the thrill of a more powerful bike, but for me it's great fun round the local twisty, potholed, gravelly lanes. And would be capable on the BOATs.

    Plus the servicing schedule is measured in thousands of miles, not hours. Can recommend.

  • Have you had to do anything to the suspension? I think this is the sensible option for me, just need to test ride one as I've got short legs but hopefully with the narrow seat I'd be fine. I also need to figure out what the difference between this and the rally is.
