    The 450x is a good bike, my supermoto is a 2008 450x. They haven't changed much through the years. The only issue I've had with mine was a broken kick start stop plate, known issue. Replaced two years ago and hasn't been a problem since. I've beat the ever living fuck out of that motor since I've had it and the valves have always been in spec. From street riding around DFW to 500-800 miles in a weekend in Arkansas three years in a row. There are radiator fan kits available for them, I just don't ride that bike off-road enough to justify it.

      You might check the state and national park rules for the areas you want to ride. I've seen some park and forest roads listed as being for street legal, licensed, vehicles only.

        I know where a Yamaha TW200 is for 1800$. It is electric/ kick start, dual sport, quick but not blinding fast. Very fun motorcycles to explore on. Send me a PM and I can get you in contact with the owner.,
