I am looking for an Enduro bike to play around with and to get into this tipe of riding. Everyone I asked suggested I look at the 450 bikes due to my size and weight.

I can now get a 2007 450 TE with a mere 200km on the clock for R40 000. I had a look at the bike and it is basically still brand new apart from a scratch here and there.The guy bought it new from Primrose Motorcycles in 2010/11. Something to do with a hugh pre-order by Primrose and that they never sold the bikes timeously. The owner used the bike once or twice but due to the fact that he is to short could never get used to the bike and it was therefor garaged most of the time.

Can anyone who ownes or know these bikes give me some advice about their reliability, services intervals, service costs,or any other know problems.
