While looking into and at bikes I really wanted a 500exc-f or the husky 501 or 450 crf-rl. But I am not young but still think I am, and I know I’d try to ride it like I used to and would end up hurt lol. This bike will take me where I want to go. Got giant loop coyote bags and slowly rigging up for camping. Can’t wait to get out there to camp! That’s why I like the 300 rally. Can get close to 400km to a tank and long service intervals. Those ktm and huskies have 2000km recommended service intervals. Might have to change oil in a trip. 300 checked more boxes than most and super affordable imo

Agree totally, like I said in my post, "depending how much your into it".
The Rally is a great bike for the price point. The two are not in the same league or price point.
It was just a suggestion, only you know the type of usage and coin your willing to put out.

Bet after a few beers when the snow is gone you’ll be doing some laps on that!

Damn straight! The oldest went down today to look at one for himself so might have a couple of them to terrorize the campsite with this summer.

Cool bike! No wonder the itch to ride is so irresistible.

Me and a Buddy both bought CBR125R's back in 2009, they were $1500 and we had so much ripping around town. Maxed out they'd do 112 km/hr.

A beauty evening last night in Winnipeg and got out for a rip and then went to MOTO 49 gathering. It is a DIY rental garage with tools etc required for any project, has a couple of bays and nice set up. First pic is my ride the 2012 deluxe which caught the eye of a few

Sold my cruiser, wanted something I could explore the backroads on. Getting the first service out of the way then the mods can start.
