Depends if you're motorwaying down and back or backroads...

If motorway I'd probably go for big ADV (GS or Super Tenéré maybe) or Sport Tourer (perhaps some BMW thing?)...
If backroads a super naked type like the aforementioned 990SMT would be great or maybe even a Tuono?

More back roads, possibly some easier TET sections if possible. I'm hoping to test ride some ADV style bikes over the next few months. I have short legs so want to make sure they are for me. 990SMT is right up my street and so is this https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/614254500841287/

For some reason I keep gravitating to older bikes, obviously want to make my life harder.

990 adv then
or even 950 adv

if i had some cash I'd have one in a heartbeat. Nothing like the sound of a twin tearing up a mountain.

Edit: Short legs, so maybe not for you

Maybe a newer africa twin could be had at that price, won't set the world alight but do the job.

This dude always speaks great sense. He has done enough to know what is what. He mentions the Richy Vida video that I did watch a couple of months ago and I had the same thoughts.
