I am sure the Honda will be good and reliable bike and sell well but the thing that would keep me away is the extra 30 lbs over the KTM/Husky. I just find that I can ride longer and feel less tired with less weight my current 350 is 10 lbs less than my 450 and on a long ride it feels like it is 50lbs less. Now take is for what it is as I have a 2005 KTM with 12,000 miles and a 2015 Husky with 7500 miles all about 98% offroad. Neither has ever left me stranded, now if I could just stop getting flat tires (I know there is a fix for that too). The modern fuel injected KTM have been going 300-400 hours on a top end, then it is just a cylinder re-fress and new rings.
