Is a G450X the right bike?

I know Slaaiblaar asked a similar question recently but he was more focused on enduro. I'm looking for something around R35k to do a 2km (yes, two) commute to work around twice a week, the occasional 20km round trip to a friend's place and the odd weekend blast around dirt roads and the likes of Breedts Nek, Jericho Rock etc, although I'd like to get into (slightly) more technical stuff too.

You might say get an XRL but none of the 650 bikes can offer the same weight, fuel injection and quality suspension as the 450 for anywhere near my budget.

What's it like living with the X (servicing etc)?
What else is there?
