Dude they're insane... I've been riding a BMW F650 GS, and unless I was spending ALOT more time offroad I see no benefit to them, in fact it's not half as comfortable as my V. (Plus they're more expensive, and more expensive to repair) I look forward to doing some adventure riding next year, hopefully atleast a 2500 miler. I'd prefer more. If I could take 6 weeks off, I'd do the same.

On another note, I'll be selling my 2007 GTS 250 ie Vespa If anyone is interested... It's only got ~1050miles, and I haven't driven it in about a month since I've been riding my motorcycle for the past two weeks, and before that the BMW, I just don't see me driving it often enough to Own it.
