Re: IF I were to get a dirt bike, what should I get?
I like the sound of the option to pick something, ride it for a bit. Figure out what you like and don't. Then move the direction you want with a better purpose. If you shop around and pick up used like mentioned you will likely be able to sell it for what you have in it of not close. You might find that dirt is the way and want to go that route or decide its just not for you and scrap it all together. Either way it will be an adventure!
That WR450 sounds like a good deal. Will putt around a field all day or down a dirt road all day, hit as nasty of single track as you dare (slow and easy works as well). Can update the plates so the street legal part is already worked out. Will work well for dual sport. Add a comfortable seat though. Good suspension as well for about anything you care to throw at it. I would check that option out as I think the that while the 250 will be fun it you will out grow it quickly or be hunting for another gear in the wide open stuff. With the 450, like with your AT you will need to learn a little throttle control.
