I/We ride a V85TT it's one of those bikes that rides better than it reads on paper.
It's very capable off road up rocky river beds and mountain goat tracks .It's also very capable at pissing sport bike riders off on the twisties.
My partner rides a V7 Special 111 but we also travel the country two up with a tent at times and this doesn't slow us down.
It doesn't have the punch of 950 KTM Adventure That I had before ,but It delivers as many smiles .
Theres no looking back for us.Servicing is easy too.I also have 1975 850 T3 and a 71 Laverda SF 750 GT and a CZ Jawa 350 and we each have customized DR650's
