Your thoughts on the New Honda CRF 450 L

Honda all the way. KTM's are great, as long as nothing ever breaks, or you want to do some factory upgrades at some point. At that point KTM will be very expensive. I worked on my grandson's KTM when the motor came apart, and the dealer prices were nothing short of outrageous.

KTM's are excellent machines, but you pay dearly for that. Competition would be a tougher call, but with a Dualsport, no contest.
