I totally get it. The 300 kit helped but it's still not a 400. I'm 60 and have had a few physical and health issues so triple jumps or any kind of aggressive riding are out of the question, but I still love to do paved twisties and mild trails. That said, I'd still like a 400+ cc bike without having to spend a mint. I don't want the bulk of a KLR though.

Some of us have to face the fact that it doesn't matter if we buy the most expensive golf clubs....our game is still going to be mediocre. Would I love to have a KTM? Of course....but I'd never be able to ride it to it's limits, so why bother? That's why these China bikes work so well for my particular market.
