Very interesting, with only 80 miles on mine it was an initial observation, we did a muddy track back down to the farm and Sue immediately commented on how much confidence the bike gave her, the engine is so smooth and responsive and somehow even though it is a pretty lightweight machine KTM have given it a big bike feel, the CRF 250's were 1kg heavier but felt like 250's if that makes sense. We have both done many thousands of miles on motorcycles, I have now been riding for 55 years, from the age of 7, we got fed up of the weight of our big bikes and the 250's were very hard work for long distances on the road so we are looking forward to getting to know these new bikes, maybe the perfect all rounder.
