You must not have a big enough stick up your ass

Oh ok it's a bimmer (or beemer)
Looks ok to me, it's a lot better than those ugly VSTROMs. But isn't 800 cc's a little overkill for a dual sport? Unless maybe you were going to spend a lot of the time ON road. |

yeah... probably is... but it'll be my only bike and I tend to take long trips... so this will be nice and comfortable for long trips and I don't have to stop when the pavement does.
I'm looking eventually to pickup a KLR or DRZ dualsport to do a bit of travel, store, fly home, fly back and repeat. |

the F800GS is a parallel twin. run 11000 new... 13000 out the door with ABS (selectable) heated grips, trip computer, and clear signals(who really cares).

what is the difference between that and something like an KTM 690? I rode one of those and couldn't get used to it, it was so damn high and had alot of brake dive.
