What bike to get next? help
Hello Extra breaking horsepower forum,
Already sounds like the perfect place for me to be to make the best choice. At the moment I own a 2013 KTM 450 EXC-F and in all honesty, it is by far the best bike I have ever owned. The sheer build quality stands out alone and then you get that awesome amount of power that will get you over just about anything. I and the lads would get togeather and go offroading which in I'm not all that good at but it's fun never the less. Now, I am looking to put my dirtbike days behind me for a while and was looking for something a little lower in height and more power! But after quite a lot of looking and banging my head on the table, I just can't make a decision. I will place 3 bikes below some specs and prices, please tell me your thoughts.

Sorry about the specs on the bottom two bikes I couldn't find any more detailed specs. All three bikes were found on this site http://www.used.forsale/australia/ so feel free to check them out on there to get a more clear perspective.
So, which one would you guys choose? and when going to view and test ride the bikes, what should I look out for in terms of maintenance? is there anything in particular that I should be looking at on these beasts??
Really looking forward to speaking with you all and making my next big decision!!
Thanks
