I am looking to make a supermoto for some track days. But I find myself having a hard time deciding which to get.
I am looking at a 09 Kx 450F which I will need to convert into a street legal supermoto.
A Husaberg FS 650 or an older FC 501. Though I am having a little trouble finding one. The new ones are ok but they lost everything I liked about the older ones.
Or a Gas Gas ec 300 which is already been made street legal. It's a 2-stroke so it’s got some limitation being street legal.

I am asking this question in hopes to get some prospective on what everyone thinks of these bikes and which they believe to be the best for a street legal supermoto racer. Think 60/40 mix of road and race.

Also, Just to be clear this is NOT going to be my only bike.

Not going to comment on the bikes but I will add that using a street-machine for a race-machine isn't the way to win races if that was on your mind and it's costly too, (know those little lights that stick out on the front and rear that blink when you push the right button?!? and that's just four cheap parts.)



Just saying.

You forgot a great supermoto bike. Try a Aprilia SXV450 or 550. They can be had for a reasonable price also.
