I'll go 1st. Over 60 practice rider. $11k budget.

1. Alta MXR- competitive (maybe a cheater) and different
2. Beta 480rr - beautiful, different and competitive
3. KTM/Husky 450 - OK competitive, just not beautiful or different

Still waiting for all the '19's to come out.

1) Alta MXR
2) ......
3) ......

For 2019, but I’ll probably buy it by the end of the year.

Plan on keeping my 2015 YZ450.

Followed by building a moto track on our 5 acres next spring.

1) 18 KTM 450 ... Will be something different to ride, but very similar to my 17 KTM 250sx (which I'm not selling).
2) 18 RMZ 450 ... Very easy bike to ride, turns awesome.
3) 18 KXF 450 ... Cheap

Been on smokers for 6 years. There are days I just want to lug around and roll the throttle. That's why I got KTM 450 first, because it has addressed 100% of the issues I had with 4 strokes. Only problem is I have never rode one and its the most expensive.

Mine is kind of speaking with a dozer rental right now if that counts. Keeping my 2 strokes but may add an Alta to the stable to keep the peace after 5-6pm.

It already did. One of my excavators had issues so I had to drop some coin on a Cat 307C.

Wallet going to speak next year on a ‘19 KX450F hopefully... as for now
1. KTM 450SXF/Husqvarna FC450
2. TM MX450
3. Suzuki RMZ450 (And dump a decent amount of $ into it)

For the record I’m pretty much a two stroke guy but I’m lacking a 450 at the moment...

Currently on a 2011 YZ250f. She needs to be put out to pasture yesterday. I've got the cash for whatever but I'm a cheap piece of crap.

1. New YZ250F or CRF250R. Whichever is most reliable.
1a. KTM350SXF. Dream bike but hella expensive.
2. YZ125.

I love the thought of all the new riding places due to no noise Smile but getting one down under would cost a kidney on the black market.

Very sweet DN.
With my 8 grandkids( 4 with my $bikes) I would have to vote for the new or leftover Kaw or Suk 250's going for $5700 USD in the states for the "over 60 practice rider specified". IMO.

I'm a uni kid that just rides for fun to stay sane so I think I will just be rebuilding my bike with new piston, new graphics and plastics, rim hoops, respray a few things and get my suspension serviced. Probably a $1500 job but will have a near new bike
