Right, but you’re talking about it in terms of sport touring, where the weight and power help and make sense. And, like most things, it can go off road a little. They don’t bill it as a big dirtbike, and you bought it for the right reasons and ride it like you’re supposed to. Read more

I completely agree. I think anyone who buys a sportbike and then doesn’t ride on the track a decent amount is also silly. But at least those tools are designed well for the job they’re supposed to do. Read more

And I’m totally cool with that, because that’s how I want to ride them. But with more street focused options, like the S 1000 XR and normal Multistrada, how do I review these “off road” versions like people actually use them off road. Read more
