Petenz is on a distinguished road
Chances are any new ADV bike over 650cc will be
more road based as that is what the market want...
the fact is less than 20% of ADV bikes over 650cc
ever go offroad.... So theres the market road based
ADV look alike bikes....
Do yer build a bike for the 20% or the 80%...

Got to give Honda the thumbs up for the new AT but it
is more road based than the earlyer models...
they also have a new NX650 Dominator style ADV bike
in the wings for sometime in 2017.....

Even on this forum how meany times have I read
I use my ten for commuting not really into offroad riding...
