I currently have a 2014 yz250F with a  full Yoshi and Rekluse 3.0 core.   I also have a 2013 Husqvarna Te310r that is uncorked.  My delema is I want a bike that is going to run like my 250f but be street legal.  The Husky just doesn't perform up to my Yamaha and the Yamaha obviously isn't street legal.  I was debating between a 2012 WR450F, a ktm 350 exc, husky 350 fe, ktm/husky TE.  Is the ktm 350 exc tuned way down from the xc's?  Is the Yamaha way behind the ktm and husky?  Does the Yamaha need a bunch of pipes and remaps?  Do the KTM/HUSKIES?  Is the KYB SSS worth losing a few horsepower and adding a few pounds that the Yamaha does?  I don't want a dual sport!!!!!!  I want a motocross bike I can ride on the road.  I'll be 90% off road and 10% on road.

Beta 350/390/430/500 RR-S

Husqvarna FE350/450/501

All KTM based bikes need re-mapping and a new exhuast.

The BETA does not.

The WR needs the GYTR treatment.

Everything else worth considering is closed course only.....which may not matter in PA for plating. I don't know.

Why not just plate your YZ250f?

you just have to check what the requirements are for transfering an out of stat plated bike back into PA or just run it with the SD plates.

Why don't you street plate the YZ250F?  This is possible in some states but I don't know about PA, otherwise you may have to resort to a factory 'dual sport'.

My 250f is just geared way too low for the roads.

Well then go up a tooth or two up front,    Are you afraid you are going to stall it taking off with that recluse. :-)

[rider300]

lol.  No.  I don't want to change the gearing everytime I go from a trail to track to road.  Mine is perfect for trail and track.  Not even close for road.  Plus by the time I bought the street legal kit and upgraded the coil I might as well get something that is good everywhere.  I have been looking at a 2012 wr450F in great shape for $4000 but I see they only have 41 horsepower.  That's what my 250 has.  How bad is the WR corked up with that exhaust?  Really like the '17 Husky 350 FE but $11,000?  OUCH.

Nothing wrong with that - - good choice.  Note that the Beta two-strokes are basically street legal from the factory in many states.  They come equipped with a functional high/low beam headlight, tail/brake lights, horn, DOT knobbies, and wired for flasher & turn signals.  All it needs are mirrors and to mount turn signals.

Yep, move to the Dakotas if you can't dual sport your MXer locally!
