450x & 650x

[kiwiAdventure]

I ordered a 450x last year but canceled the order due the servicing costs and the maximum speed you can ride the bike if you want to keep the bike warranty.
I was dissappoint but went and purchased a new 650x for 3k less than the 450x. After owning the 650x for the past 6 months I plan on spending the 3k replacing the rear air suspension as well a lighter rear muffler. The 650 engine is rock solid and the bike is easy to work on.

Has anyone else had a change of hart.

for the dutch terrein is a 450 betterthen a 650, therefor i see more people changing from big to smal.But if there was alot more space in the Netherlands i guess a 650 would be better

650 engine is excellent. Hyperpro do an extremely satisfying rear end for it - progressive spring and infinitely adjustable shock. Half way round the world now on that set up and I can tell you it rocks.
