Upgrade from DRZ

I was talking to a guy last weekend who races in the supermoto series and he was saying he rides a Honda CRF450.

Here ya go!

Also look at these. The 525 has the same chassis as the 450 (at least for the EXC's), 5 pounds more, and more hp. I have no idea how it's set up differently between the EXC and SMR. Plus, 6 speed tranny.

I saw that red framed WR the other day on Clist. There's a nice KTM 450 SXC (???? something like that, not the EXC) with the SM and dirt setup.

Wonder how the honda's are for maintenance?

SX is supercross (I think) and is meant for motocross tracks. Very close gearing and not good as a road or trail bike. I'm not 100% sure on this, but pretty sure.
