XR650R - Must be made street legal, has power out the ass, is light for its size, off road genius, Baja 1000 champ every year. Cheap. It's a bit tall.

XR650L - Street legal, good to go w/o modification (other than seat height), will carry two up without protest, good torgue but slow on the tarmac, very off road capable, cheap, heavy and tall.

KTM - street legal, good power, great offroad though heavy, buzzy at speed, high maintenance, pricey, looks very cool.

Honda Africa Twin - Never seen one of these have you?! We can't et 'em in the US/Canada. 600cc V-twin, great road manners, heavy, low power for the weight, have traveled the world.
