Using dirt bikes for hunting the mountains.

I just picked up a new Husqvarna FE 450. Looking forward to trying it out this fall. Have the summer to get use to hauling a heavier pack and riding at the same time.
 
I have a 2022 KLX300 Dual Sport and got my motorcycle endorsement, so i can ride it to work on nice days. It is EFI, so i don't have to worry about jetting at elevation.

I have a bunch of bikes, had a dialed in tw200 (barf) and currently my favorite hunting bike is a xt225.

I want dependable, quiet, reliable, decent handling and suspension (not race tuned for 60mph square edged rocks and roots...) decent fuel capacity and not a big (long/tall) bike.

The 225 does it and can be had any day for well sub $2k.
