[QUOTE="DoubleTrouble, post: 108829, member: 18615"] Rockrider, AL, (Bundu basher), has been trying to get me on a DR-Z for a while now. I took his bike for a spin and it's pretty impressive. Too tall for me and I'm quite sold on the F650GS, the Dakar in fact - The Kouba links are much needed. They have had F/I mapping problems and a lot of owners have been very unhappy. However, the latest bikes seem to be cured. If you going to do 100-200 mile days and a little dirt/gravel riding then the DRZ will be a tough ride. The Husqvarna TE610 might be better than the DRZ on the road but I can't see it being that much better. Your best bet is the BMW or the KLR. Their weights are pretty much the same so don't expect much more than gravel/dirt/fire road work on these beasts. Some experienced riders can make the KLR and even the GS look good in the dirt but they are in the minority - Joe Average will find the going rough. The KLR has proven itself and has changed little over the past ten years and the price of $5000 a bargain. However, if you're sold on the GS, go for it - A lot of world travelers can't be wrong !
