Hello from Wisconsin

Heyo,

Been around motorcycles my whole life. Have been riding my 03 Harley Heritage for years now and still love it.

My son, thank God, is finally stepping back from video games occasionally and had gotten into mini bikes. We've built him one and I picked up a Trailmaster Hurricane 200x for myself to enjoy with him.

Anyway... I'm a TDI guy and love that they used to be cheap cars that got great fuel economy. My old 01 Jetta tdi commuter met a deer at 57mph a couple of weeks ago and is laid up waiting for me to fix her when I find a deal on parts.

In the meantime I have been considering a couple of bikes as replacements as my Harley's mpg's are not great and I'd like to mile it out on road trips and not trips to and from work.

The bikes I am considering are, in order: 2022 Lifan KPR200 ($3K), 2020 KTM 390 Duke w/ 230 miles ($4.5k), and the new 2022 Vitacci Titan 250 EFI ($3.3K)

Figured when he gets his license in a year and a half I can sell it to him for cheap and get myself a KPT400!

Wondering if any of you have an opinion on the matter! Thanks

Hiya,

Welcome aboard and Go, Pack. Wisconsin expat here. I can't offer much of an opinion on your choices other than to say that my younger brother would knock you down to get to the KTM.
