This feels like a bike you could spread a map out for and just go anywhere. 645cc, 70hp, a 5.3-gallon tank — that's enough for roadside-stop hopping or a proper long tour. It won't chase a Ténéré 700 off-road, but if I'm picking highway comfort, I might actually lean V-Strom.

The V-Strom's always been the safe, solid choice — looks like this keeps that going.

It's got dual-channel ABS, so it should feel safer for beginners.

The Ténéré 700 is better off-road, why push this one?

At $9,799 including upkeep, this one's just more realistic.
