Message: [QUOTE="beer_stud_76, post: 490730, member: 34459"] jimboe - i too ride an XR600 and you are right about it being a heavy pig on slow technical single track. however, it is a mistake to think it is purely a wieght issue. yes the 600 is heavy, and the KTM 450's and 520's might be just a bit lighter, but the XR FEELS heavier because so much it its wieght is carried on the front wheel. try out some other bikes and forget about what the scale says. it can be misleading. also, a KDX would make a fine companion to your XR. jeremiah [/QUOTE]
