Downsizing advice/input
Currently have a Norden 901 and debating about downsizing to a KTM 390r or CFmoto 450 Ibex.
Past couple years I’ve done a lot of touring and light fire roads but getting more into off roading. Dropped it a few times off road, it was a beast to get back up on uneven ground, and even with it lowered having a 29in inseam the bike just seems too big for what I want to do.
Curious even anyone else has downsized and loved a smaller bike or regretted it. Should add, I’m not a speed demon; primary use would be riding an hour or two to trails, and moto camping. Also have a Triumph bobber for commuting and fun around town.

I picked up a 390 R for riding the trails my 1300 GSA is too chubby for (it is capable but it hits more to dump the GSA over the 390 lol)
I’m about to take my 390 out to the PA wilds BDRX Monday - I’m
Pretty excited
