I was looking for a small dualsport to keep on the back of my RV and use for light dualsport exploring and grocery runs and figured a Honda CRF300L at $5300 would be great. I've been riding dualsport for decades (ugh). Well that 5300 turned into almost 9 grand with dealer fees and market adjustments so I came home quite dismayed (as a 4 decade Honda guy) and found the Templar X which seemed to fit the bill and had some decent utube reviews so I clicked buy. Damn happy I did as it has turned out to be exactly what I wanted at a price that didn't hurt. I was so impressed I ordered a scooter as well and that has also been fantastic. The big name manufacturers really need to get ahold of their dealers actions and greed before China cleans their clock. The CFMOTO 450 MT and Kove models should be a real wakeup call for the big boys that China has arrived and is quite serious.
