Riding Baja on the WR450F and saying 'this is the most fun bike I've ever had' — I get that feeling. I also think a 450-class enduro is a companion that moves exactly as I want it on dirt or rock. That feeling of the chassis responding like a living thing, something you can't taste on pavement, is irresistible. A veteran falling that hard for it means it's genuinely highly refined.

The WR450F's fairly pricey already, and the short maintenance intervals are the scary part.

Ride reviews basically always sing praises, so I take it with a grain of salt.

I get that it's fun in Baja, but with zero storage it's not really a touring bike.

The WR450F leans competition, but does this variant actually get street registration?

That's a competition-based machine, so the street version is different — it also needs frequent oil changes.

If a writer who's ridden Africa on a Royal Enfield and Europe on a T700 says that, it's the real deal.

Hearing 'the most fun bike I've ever ridden' makes you want to try it yourself.

It's fun, sure, but it's built for trail riding, which is a different axis from touring.
