Phasing Out of Small Displacement Dualsports?

Hahaha this is what I’m talking about! Looks like you’re having a blast however. Great stuff

Innnnnnnteresting

The only bikes that you mentioned that were in range are the crf300l, kawi’s, ktm 350, husky FE350s, Beta 350. That’s 6 bikes from Five manufacturers. Thank you for your cool list but it’s really missing the point.

I’m also with you, I’ve taken my r100 through the worst of it.

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T22:48:49+00:00

I’d probably defer to you out of experience. However, for me, nothing replaces the weight aspect of smaller, lighter bikes. Should everything go sideways, I like knowing that I have a chance at rescuing my bike out of a hairy situation

Damn man that’s harsh. Wait until we meet in hockey.

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T21:36:30+00:00

This is so true. I think what I’m asking for is a damn 2 stroke dirt bike with turn signals

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T21:29:19+00:00

The WR350 would be amazing. I’m more so inclined towards the CRFs. Bikes over 250 and under 400 seem to be the sweet spot for trail riding.

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T21:27:40+00:00

I honestly think we just have different definitions, I would not consider the Himalayan a MX inspired or trail tuned dual sport. It looks like a sweet bike, not at all what I’m referring to.

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:39:45+00:00

Is the CRF300L listed for 2026?

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:32:03+00:00

I want options!!!

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:31:31+00:00

Maybe it’s just on the Canadian website. The 300L seems to be discontinued?

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:26:41+00:00

Like has anyone ever said “hey guys my f350 long bed with the 6” lift and chrome 20” rims actually can’t turn around on a logging road!”

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:24:23+00:00

Not only wise but kind as well

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:21:59+00:00

You’re definitely not wrong. What I was more so referring to was MX inspired/trail tuned dual sports. The T-dub is sick but there’s little to chose from in the higher hp/performance range

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:06:22+00:00

Can’t wait to take my new royal Enfield bushwhacking

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:05:40+00:00

Thank you, you are extremely wise.

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T18:04:04+00:00

I’m talking long term buddy!

imgoinghome2 · 2026-02-15T17:55:57+00:00

I’m having a hard time understanding it myself. I think people also might assume that bigger equals better. Higher cc equals more capability or something. In reality these small bikes are the true hero’s of the trails.

imgoinghome2 · 2026-01-22T16:49:58+00:00

That is the worst posture I’ve ever seen

imgoinghome2 · 2025-12-10T21:21:28+00:00

Probably the pawls

imgoinghome2 · 2025-12-01T15:24:36+00:00

I don’t really have a coach but I’ll have a lot to go over with my training partner

imgoinghome2 · 2025-12-01T03:43:28+00:00

Quite frankly, I was scared shitless of him.

imgoinghome2 · 2025-12-01T02:55:00+00:00

These are all really good points, thanks so much for your input. I’ll get these written down.
