I'd love any of those. Tuareg hits the spot for me personally.
Alas, they're also leagues outside my budget, and I've also learnt my lesson to never buy first year bikes.
@pdlouche I'm quite conflicted to be honest. Part of me really likes them, the other part just thinks 'get a proper dirt bike'. I don't have the skill or the need to ride dirt all the time, so I'll have to live with the compromises.
The major issues that scare me, are the mental amount of electronics, which aren't going anywhere. You cant do anything on the Desert X; down to the air filter!
I can see where this is going, the same way electronics are. No user serviceable parts.
Maybe I should get an old Africa Twin and be done with it.
