It's a shame they don't really have a single dirt bike that is competive. When they rolled out the KLX300 I was stoked that it was going to be a nice in between option for the wife but at 290 lbs it's a frinkin joke. The KX450X is probably a decent bike but I am no longer man enough to handle a 450 in the woods. :knary:

The KLX230 is more 250-260. Still kinda heavy but more the bike you are looking for.
