      @Nottsbiker Probably, internet said it only weighed 128kg (dry). That's not so bad is it?

        @Irongamer727 There is no way they are that light. Aprilia RS125 is 130 Dry!

        Impressive if they are though

              @declan Leaning towards the Xr650 now since most are sold as supermotos. They're not very cheap though.

                @Irongamer727 yeah but they last forever the 650s watercooled too so that’s an advantage although I prefer air cooled as there’s less to go wrong

                  Don't bother with the air cooled 600, get the 650r water-cooled, road legal Dakar racer

                      @declan don't mind them but big tolerances to allow for the temperature variations kinda suck for tuning, also the water cooled R version is just a different bike all together, proper race machine.

                        @Glynn123 I do really like the water cooled engine for looks it’s one of those timeless designs imo
