Probably not best of times to start this thread since everyone stuck on Dakar thread ;D

I want to improve on my riding and I think a lighter bike can do that for me ::)

Bikes I have been considering is 450cc as I can use on enduro type terrain and can convert to Rally bike later on should I feel need. But I also had an eye on 250cc or 300cc class, should I even consider these or just stick with 450cc ? is the weight difference that much between 450cc and 250cc ?

At moment I am liking Honda CFR450R but not really bothered about brand just want to know if 450cc is better option? I am currently on 650 Xchallenge yes its lighter then GSA 1200 but its still bit heavy.
