Ok, I was too slow (well shipping offer at around 600$ came in too late too:D). And the KTM is sold.
Still looking for something in 350-390cc range

Does it need a tag/license plate?

Well, yes.
Probably I could get one even for an off-road motorcycle, I'm not sure. Would rather have one titled. I want to participate in DS events too :)
AND I want a FI and price better be up to 6k, that's my comfort limit at this moment

After couple of beers I now again really want a Beta 390 RR-S
But where to get one that fits in my budget?!
There is a couple of Betas and KTMs in 350ccs..
Will look around for a while.
Then again I've never ridden any of them and just want it after hearing things
How do you guys get to test the bike you want? W/o bying a new one (especailly if it doesn't come with diplomatic discounts
)

Call up Don at Cyclemax 888-757-2995 And ask him to bring one out to the R&T Charity ride next weekend for a demo. He has done this in the past.

Idk if I even will go to that ride yet. Will try. But I kinda don't feel like asking someone bring a test bike without even considering to buy it..
If it was like a test bike for all to try at their place it would be a bit different ;)

Ha-ha, Yanka - you remember!
But I don't.. What 430? Is it very similar to 350 or 390?

Lol, spies everywhere !
Thanks
One guy offered a used '17 390 for $9500. On cycletrader I see listed new '18 390 for $8995. Idk if there are much more expenses after that, but I would still choose new over used if the price is the same. Or less for new
