Rather that than any new off roader.
Until you take it off road and realise how far bikes have come 
But the reality is, most dirt bikes are “Chelsea enduros” anyway

loved it and had some huge fun on it but it was the bike I had my first properly fast and frightening crash on. I hit a 1meter high grass bank/ramp between my school's rugby fields, flat out in top, 2 up without helmets.

I still get goosebumps today thinking about that one. I swear I have never flown so high or so far unassisted, and still remember thinking mid flight, "this is going to f&^kin' hurt....
I still see the snap shot in my head as I went over the bars in mid air and upon landing (still hanging over the bars with my groin on the headstock, yup, it really did hurt but my pillion came off worse. 20 mins later we were back on our way, a little chastened by the escape....
or the day I looped it on the farmers field opposite the school, pulling a huge roost which then gripped and saw me on my arse in a second....
Happy days....

My 175 Enduro had a low front mudguard (as they all did I think) and was more a trials looking thing.
Mine was like this. I wish I still owned it!
