Not my thing, but interesting that the big old
V-Twin 1000 motor still lives on....

Yeah, wasn't impressed with the bike,
It's neither an XTZ/BMW competitor or
a more popular 800 Triumph / BMW rival.


Just thought it was interesting that as we held
onto the oilcooled GSXR type lump untill the
B12's went watercooled, there is still a source
of the V-twin that some folk like.

Sadly it is a vast improvement from the last VStrom.
Looks like a GS raped a Tiger.
