Default Honda now enters the ADV tourer game

I like it, it's got a very GS look to it. Looks better than the Super Tenere. Plus, I rather Hondas. It's a V4 though. I like the twin torque for off road.

Agreed, but most big GS owners don't do much more than gravel roads.

I do a lot of the ADV rallies, (headed to one this afternoon in fact) and it's very rare to see a GS on any of the "dirty" rides.

I don't blame you. That's a lot of bike to be slogging around on single tracks.
