@jackson55 Wow, how fun. I would be out there every day polishing and riding. I have been torn on what kind of ADV/Dual purpose I want to add. I really like the BMW 310GS, seems like a good street and mild trail bike. I also like the KTM390.
@DogMan The BMW’s I have are road bikes. The GS’s and other dual purpose bikes have gotten too high. Need a stool to get on one. Have a friend with a BMW 800 GS. He’d like to lower it an inch or two. The older you get the higher and heaver they get.
@jackson55 That is the nice thing about the little GS. just under 33" seat height, I have a 29" inseam and it was comfortable with both feet on the ground. my 200lbs probably helped compress the rear shock a little too. Lol
@Matt85 Yes, it is supposed to do real good offroad, best of any of the so called ADV bikes. it blurs the line between Adventure bikes and dual sport bikes
Well, I got my Royal Enfield yesterday. I have to go through the long painful break in process now. Some people say "Drive em like you stole them" instead of going through the manufacturers recommended break in.
They're old school as fuck and nothing to marvel at but they are robust and a lot for your buck if you like old school looks and riding feel. They're pretty cool and beauties of simplicity and what works.
@MethDozer I agree, hell I bought a new jeep in 2016 and purposefully ordered it with no touch screen, it even has manual locks and hand crank windows. And of course, Manual transmission. ☺️
