I'm looking for all supermoto options. I used to own a drz400sm. I know that I don't want one again. They are underpowered and undersuspended. So that brings me to my current dilemma. Where should I start?
I'd like the bike to be dual purpose for short road trips and track days. But a track only bike is not out of the question. I like two strokes like the KTM 300 and the cr500 but I can't find much info on how well they hold up on a road coarse. Aslo I've found some 530 exc's and a few older yamaha wr450 pre built sumo's. I need reliable. I want something that can take a lowside and still ride the rest of the day and something that won't blow on the front strait and 120mph. I would like to enter a novice race so something I could run in a class would be preferred. I'm partial to KTM.
Buy a 450 mxer and build a sumo? Which brand? Can it be a two stroke? How reliable are they? How fast are they? Should I buy a built mx sumo?
Buy a factory sumo. I've heard good and bad things about the Big bore bikes. I'm looking for a track bike that I can ride on the street not the otherway around. I need it to be reliable. I don't know where to start.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
