I don't know much about motards, but I wouldn't think it would be suitable for offroad use anymore if you actually set the suspension up for street use. You could leave the dirtbike suspension, but you would sacrifice street performance for the versatility.

My vote would go to a serious motard if there was a good place to use it. The small tank prevents you from going too far from a gas station at any given time, and the infestation of the gap makes having such a narrowly focused bike less desirable. Maybe you could pick up a motard and club race it fairly cheaply in between street use.
