Or better yet, the Aprilia (if they make it)

I'd disagree here. For a dirt bike I'd definitely go with a ricer, Honda, Yamadog, Kawi, and finally the Suzuki. Dirt bikes need loads of parts, and most reviews of the Husky are pretty poor when compared to the Japanese offerings. KTM is a very cool bike but you will pay more money for equal (or less) performance. I believe the Honda CRF450 and Yamaha YZ250F are about as good as it gets in dirtware these days.

I'd love to get a SM CRF.
