Default question for Marty

You said in a recent post, "Heck, Honda is even bringing out a product for 2007 that looks just like the KLX250S, except it's finished off in red plastic." Where did you get this info? I looked on the Honda bike site and there is nothing. Thanks.

Ok I'm not Marty, but this is what I found out, it looks like the Honda is a Japan and Australia, (and maybe a few other places) bike only. Here are a couple of links.

I dont get it. Why dont the main bike makers bring those dual sports to the states. Could it be because of EPA standards.

Now dont get me wrong, I like my Klx250 But if Yamaha came out with a wr450F Dual sport or Honda a XR400m dual sport I probably would not have bought the Klx. IMHO The only real dual sport avaible in this country is the Drz400 and I just dont like the Look of the bike.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Honda offer the 650 and 250 in both R and L models not too long ago? I thought the 400 had a street edition too but not positive on that one.

correct me If I am wrong

XR 600 ( off road only)
XL 650 (dual sport)
XR 250 (off road only)
XL 250 (dual sport) last year made in the U.S. 1996
XR 400 (off road only) This bike is not street legal from the factory but there is a lot of dual sport conversions for this bike.
