Is it just me?
Now, I like my Transalp and I'd like a new Ténéré and I'd like one of the BMW G650s as they seem to have great potential as trip bikes.
However, for some reason I find myself being drawn to the likes of scrambler style bikes: Triumph, Royal Enfield and the new beauty from Moto Guzzi.
Not off-roaders, but with enough dirt riding pretensions to open up most trails for most riders.
Plus they would probably be more comfy on tarmac than some more trailie based bikes. The only down sides are a hefty weight, and possibly not as good fuel consumption as those at the top.
What do HUBBers think?
Do they have potential as good compromise overlanders for those doing less than 50% riding on dirt?
