I have been riding dirt bikes for over 40 years. During that time I have never had a new dirt bike, last week I changed that.
I picked up a 2021 KTM XC250 TPI and wow! The fuel injection is spot on and the bike is so smooth it just makes traction. The bike has the counter balance crank and has zero vibration on or off the pipe, AKA powerband. This was a big plus to me as age is catching up with me and my hands would go numb quick on my 2013 bike.
This model also has air forks, no springs. When you get old and fat, just add more air.

Joking aside the suspension is amazing and sucks up bumps and roots.
The bike feels lighter than it is. It will lift front wheel with little effort even before the pipe comes on.
At this point I have no regrets with this purchase. I will try and update more as I put more hours on it.
Stay dirty my friends.
