after a short hiatus (kids, family etc) I'm keen to get back on the road. my last bike was a klr650 that I sold during covid. i have a budget of 100k. most rides will be weekend trips with maybe one bigger trip year. im not looking for a rocket ship, something that can cruise at 120kph loaded and is reliable.
options
Xt660z might be too similar to the klr that I found was cumbersome and heavy.
dr650 less road manners but bullet proof and fairly decent offroad.
throw a spanner is the works
CRF300 rally will be great offroad but the highway might become a drag.
another option that's slightly out of budget is the MT 450 fairly light but reliability?
I weigh 95kg and average height. fairly confident of road.
ps I will hardly ever have a pillion and especially not on the bigger trips and will ride solo often.
appreciate you input Zane.
