>bears/wolvesburrs are easy to deal with. Wolves are rare; i've had closer encounters with bison on my moto than wolves. Mountain lions kind of scare me, but like burrs, they aren't too hard to deal with.

Hondas ... XR's a heavy pig better suited for desert than enduro. Decent dualsport, but heavy.
I looked pretty hard at WR450's before I found my orangebike. The FI'd 250's do pretty damn good even at elevation. YZF-X's are rideable as a dualsport/enduro, since they've got the wider-ratio trans.
Might also consider husaberg and husky.
Depending on where you live, doing the inspection/title work to plate a previously "offroad use only" motorcycle may get you a better deal on the bike. Some jurisdictions are easier than others.
