Are those geared higher then a 450? Seems like it would make a great on road/off road.

Looks nice!

The gearing is very similar to my old WR426, perfect for street/ trail.

Did they give you a pretty good deal on the '17? I paid around $10,500 out the door in CA for my '13 and have been shopping the '17.

10.5 sounds about right. 3 of my old coworkers when to chaparral and got the 15s for around 10.5 a piece

$10,500 was for my 2013 500EXC and I know they raised the MSRP so what would be a good deal now days, maybe 11 out the door?

Nice bike. I'm extremely jealous. Have fun, you've definitely got the bike to do it on.
