In saying that, I've spent my fair share of time oogling the 2015 EC's in at the local dealers. They look sweet and the build quality is much improved.

I'm thinking though, I'll probably jump ship when the time for another bike comes, and head for something like a YZ250F as the weapon, and use one of the gassers as the road registered trail bike.
I rode a friends 2012 Husaberg/KTM, it really felt the same as riding my 2012 gasser. Just a different front fender to stare at. The power delivery felt different, but it was a 250, which I havent been on in a looong time.

Now I need a friend with a Beta so I can try it! The yz would be a good option for those that do a lot of high water crossing seeing as the air filter is up high in front of the seat.
