Local Shop sells 2 - Which One to Get?

[Thumper]

Yes. Nice bike but kind of heavy. It makes more sense than the huge Adv/tou bikes like Transalp and 900cc bikes!
You can easily pick up a KPX if it falls, but the "adventure sports" models are big road bikes that look kind of like a dual sport. Just a heads up.

Check out the Adventure bikes section on this forum (RX3 and RX4).

The RE Himi is 440lbs. KPX is under 300lbs. 440lbs is not as heavy as some of the bigger name brand Adv/tour models. but if you take any of these off road, those dual sport tires they come with will dump you. Put more aggressive tires on it. Here is an interesting video:



EDIT: I was unaware that Benneli sells their TRK502 at some CSC dealerships and maybe other places in the USA. It weighs a hefty 460lbs, but at 500cc it make a nice 46hp. Still, I would not be happy trying to pick up a 460 lb bike on the trail! I am not sure my knees could even handle it.

So, low and behold. DAMN. That's a nice looking ride. It even has a compass! and 25 HP??They actually have a shop near me that sells them, under 5K!

Is it worth a look-see? Anyone have any experience with them? As I understand they are made in India now?
