The 400cc size seems to be about the perfect compromise for trail and street use. Still would like a drz400.
Having ridden both I can say the XR is more manageable off road than the KLR, by a wide margin. That said it is A LOT OF BIKE on the trail. In the open western places where Spud rides he should be fine...
