Ive used a xr 650 off road and there great as long as you don't take it near the woods on in bogs lol!
But anything else and there fine good balanced bike.
Probably have a few adventure type rides when the weather brakes.

nice bike tho didn't think ccm250 would be lacking power.
Only thing I think may be a proble on xrr is starting it after a fall. carb floods easily
