I've been looking for and on/off bike for a while and came across a Suzuki DR200 in new condition. The bike's a 2012 and has 340kms on it. The selling price is firm at $3500 and the new cost is $5,000 retail (in Canada). So the question is will this bike do what I need it to do. The plan is to ride some of the logging roads in my area but to get to them I will have to run some highway at 80-90kph (55mph). A light and nimble bike is important. The old logging roads are hilly with loose gravel in places and some bush riding could happen (that why the light part is important). I was considering a WR250 or WR450. I can make the WR450 street legal where I live. I have a deal going on a 2008 WR450 and it's $4,000 and mileage not known.
Help me decide.
2012 Suzuki DR200, concern is power and seat height is only 32" (would it feel small)?
2008 Yamaha WR250
2008 Yamaha WR450
