The 450L/RL is the best dual sport for open, western USA. The KLX300 is the best for wooded and urban USA. Iv had both in both terrain. The 450 had the power for sand, desert, hill climbs. The KLX has the smoothest throttle mapping Iv ever felt on an efi bike thats soooo much nicer for tight trails. If u are complaining about either of these bikes, you are not riding them where and what they are intended for.
I picked the bike because I wanted a four-stroke dual sport that could hang with my YZ250 on cross country racing I think I made the right choice so far
Merci Brad. J'ai eu dans ma jeunesse la XLS 125 la 350 puis la twin 125, les XR 200 et 500, la MTX 125, en cross une CR 125 et une 250. Maintenant j'ai 63 ans et je suis atteint d'un cancer osseux un myélome dû à un essais nucléaires atmosphérique Français en Polynésie qui m'a contaminé à l'âge de 12 ans. Le moindre choc et c'est fini pour moi. J'ai déjà eu une fracture de ma cervicale C2 juste en plongeant la tête la première dans la mer. Pour moi la moto c'est fini. Encore une fois je te remercie pour cette petite balade dans ton pays pour moi mon horizon est de rester à la maison. Merci encore.
@@jeffmunro7638 , it is Canada. I can't speak for the mansions on a crappy farm road, but the geography looks just like northern WI. If it were not for the road signs, it could be anywhere from North Dakota to Michigan. But the "Arret" stop sign was a giveaway.

Picking up my 450RL tomorrow. This video is literally the same scenario I was just playing minus the random T7 at a local dealership being tempting..
Subscribed - your analysis mimics my own. Going back through your videos and enjoying them.
Awesome, thanks!

Nice bike man- seems like it’s running mint.
I have a 2020 they are a great bike but you need to do a few things to get power and no flame out. Enjoy the ride 👍

En voyant vos vidéos je sent que je vais l'acheter je préfère mourir en liberté que de finir sur un lit dans une chambre
drz is only 5 speed but great bike and a bit vibey the 450l has very little vibes and 6 speed, but lets not forget the drz is shim valves too
Why in Canada do you have to stop on a main road for the side roads?! So weird..
Did you consider the XR650L?
I have the 2023.xr150l . The XR650 is a bike I wish odk own about or even The crf300
On devrais rider ensemble je suis a Repentigny j'ai moi aussi un CRF450RL
