All this the reason I went “Scrambler” this round. I actually looked at Ducati, Triump and BMW. Didn’t want dedicated tourer or even sport tourer or Dual Purpose… I have an ‘08 Electra Glide for my distance rides and wanted a nimble round town (country) short distance runner. They tout the BMW R NineT that I bought as a semi tourer with a touch of off-road capability.Had that too back when. The new model I like but not dropping that much coin. This is just a casual toy at this point. The previous models, I don't really care for, for what I want now.
Again, don't think I really want a purpose built tourer.
CTX, ST, F6 etc possible, but no abominations known as DCT or "autos". Bleck!
We shall see. Picked it up a week ago and got a couple hundred miles on it now. So far I’m really enjoying the pep and power to weight. Time will tell.
Good luck in the quest.. there’s a ton of‘em out there to pick from.
