    This guy is a big dude who obviously is a very good rider and makes it look easy. There is no doubt this guy could ride this bike anywhere but don't get it twisted this bike takes a lot of skill to ride it off in any real off road conditions.

    Which makes offroading with big bikes fun. You're forced to ride and practice based on technique instead of sitting you lazy ass down and dangling your feet. You dont need to buy a 20k motorcycle either. What idiot goes offroad with 20k of motorcycle?

    Made me laugh. Last time I rode in London it was an anti helmet rally in summer 77 on a GS750DB.... The GS (BMW this time) is just wonderful for European touring. So keep well away from London and try Vienna, it’s far nicer. I’ll be back there when the world opens up again

    Having a smaller bike for off-road riding in addition to a large gs does mess up your skill on a gs. With enough exclusive time on the large bike, your skill and confidence improves remarkably and off road riding on the big bike does become a pleasure. The only downside is the cost of repairs since you do drop any bike eventually on dirt. That is the only reason to own a cheaper bike for dirt work. What works well for me is a second older and cheaper 1200gs I don’t baby in the least bit. That way I get used to one bike only.

    Go further, with smaller Japanese bike. Cheap on maintenance in everything. Most engine is bullet proof. New high tech is so economical and faster. My friend R1250gs cost $4.5k to replace broken shaft drive. F700gs rear shock can get destroyed ! Never goes wrong with bullet proof Japanese bike. KTM not reliable. Needs lots of elbow grease. Fuel pump problems. Ducati parts are expensive !

    These new 1000cc+ adventure bikes are heavy a f. You've dropped your bike for a reason and it's not going to be on "flat" ground. You're going to be in the middle of nowhere, on the side of a hill -with slippery gravel, rocks, or mud under your feet, and the bike loaded with gear. Trying to stand the bike up by yourself in a real-world situation, let's just say, will be something you'll never forget. Don't even think about going off the road without at least one other person riding with you.

    I'd argue this is one of the most capable dual purpose bikes I've ever seen. A decent amount of weight will keep the bike stabilized via increased momentum. The bike is easy to pick up because of its low center of gravity and wide crash bars. I recon a liter bike would be harder to pick up. Love how the suspension is on full soft soaking up everything. Really want to see someone get after it off road.
