Hi
I'm a road biker - but  often miss cool places cos of gravel roads.  Hubby and i have just sold our superbikes and are in the market for dual bikes. 
Looking for something that can do a minimum of 50 km on tar without too much of a strain befor hitting the gravel.  Considering old XT 500 for hubby or the like - my knee cant handle kick start though. 
Wanna spend under R10 000 for each - i.e.  entry level - easy to tinker on.
Feedback on old bikes versus newer 250's please.  Value your advice.
