+1. Great bikes in concept but they are really just big tanked enduros. Look at the bikes that are in common use in the Ausi Safari now 450/530 bikes with big tanks (some with tail tanks) and a nav tower. Great fun and fast for a few days but if they were to be used like we use bikes for adv riding, can be up to 18 hours a weekend, we would be getting engine rebuilds once or twice a year. I'd still have a 690 Adv over one of these any day - pity there unlikely to see the light of day.

Funny how times change aye. Guess what I'm now riding - a big tanked enduro and changing oil after each major ride!

Hmmm I regret selling my old 640 Adventure almost hourly now...!
