Agree Richard - My KTM 625 is plenty off-road (more than 10 HP over the KLR)
I've read 2 recent reviews of the KTM/vs/Ducati Multistrata........KTM won hands down both times.....Seems the new Duck is way down on power at certain RPM due to mapping/FI problems.....
I have the same inseam issue as FlatButt.......I'm 6-2 with an inseam of 30".....
I'm sure M Marsh is the exception, but many of these big bore adventure bikes see about as much Off-road as all those SUV's that never get off the Tarmac.......
