Nice to see you just testing thee water if you will. Just casual riding getting to know your bike and the things that your lowly learn8ng what you can and can't do on it. This far.
as you get comfortable start standing. it lowers the center of gravity with the weight on the pegs and allows you to absorb bumps with your legs. also not sure where you are but these bikes can be easily transported on a hitch carrier (I have a mototote) to get to decent offtoading. but if you do end up doing more offroading get the gear or you will get hurt. particularly gloves and good offroad boots.
Like the video mate. I’m really stuck on weather I should get a gas gas /Ktm 350f or crf300. I’ve only ever ridden farm bikes like DT 175 or TTr230 a around the farm. Been riding for years but only a few time a a year on flat sandy bush tacks. Am worried this bike would be too snappy and powerful, but good to see it’s fine with low speed. Would u recommend this bike for someone who is not confident? And wants to do a lot more endouro? Or the crf? (Noting crf is duel sport and heavier)
I watched you video on the brake lever modification already and im actually looking at getting levers similar to those and was wondering how well they hold up and if they made the clutch pull any lighter. I have relatively small hands and was looking to do something similar to what you did but with the clutch because I can barely reach it with the tip of my finger so pulling it in is tricky on rocky hillclimbs when I need to also hang on tight, but I'm concerned about getting a "cheaper" set of levers like that.
So how long was the learning curve? Any regrets? Im debating this or the klx300. I have some experience. I had a yz250x and the 2 stroke kinda turned me off riding. Thinking of going back to a 4 stroke but worried id be bored on the klx and intimidated with the 350exc.
Liked your video because my main concern was how well the 350 engine handles low speed riding. Looks like it does fine to me!

Man that looks like a lot of fun but if the bike didn't kill first me my wife would!
I never ride without gloves.

What bike did you end up getting?
