New Mana v "old" 450

These Aussies seem to love the 450!

Good bikes!
I still enjoy my 411; I don’t really want to transition to the 450, as I’ll be on that slippery slope where I have to buy the latest model.
Still may have to try a 450!

They are very different bikes but as you can see in the video, they are very competent off road. I've owned both. I suspect the 450 is more suited to Oz and its gravel roads and backwoods trails. On the other hand, the 411 is probably better suited to plonking along the green lanes of England. (Which don't exist up here!)

My 450 has never been off road but is a pretty good one up tourer. Try one. You will not be disappointed.

Delete pretty, insert very.

Yup, they are very different bikes. The only similarity is the name and (just about) the shape.
