58 year old, strictly moto riding the masters class. I had an 18 ktm 350sxf, sold it after a couple months. I just don't like riding higher in the rev range that's needed to get the most out of it, including jumps for the same reason. I knew going into it, that it might not suit my riding style.
I will say this... It's one hell of a fun bike, and as nimble as a 250.
If I was off-roading, I would likey be on a 350.
I'm back on a 450. I don't get worn out anymore on the 450, than the 350.
Purely preference associated with riding style.
This ^^^^^
Old fuckers like us will feel better on 450's . By the way I am 57 . I really like riding my 250 smoker on the track but is soooo much work, next day I am really tired. When I ride my 450 is much easier. The 350's are similar to smokers , u mast work it to go fast. I see in past that lots of vet guys buy the 350 but then they will go back to 450.
