What do you ride then? Because just because you haven an ADV doesn´t have to make you slow. When I ride in Austria, in the alps, with serious switchbacks as well, somehow the big 1200GS are often faster than the sport bikes. Feels like that bumblebee situation, where they actually can´t fly but since nobody told them that, they do it anyway.

ive never heard this before so i hope you dont mind if i steal it
im on a KLR 650, so essentially a pig, but i bought it for that “legendary reliability” but after a bunch of years with it, im starting to get that itch
my biggest problem with “fast” advs is how $$$ they are, at least here in Colorado but sport bikes are still pretty reasonably priced
i think 2020 and all that shit really created this giant market for advs and the mark ups feel a little nuts
my real honest to goodness dream is to have a nice adv and a some sort of track toy, but that cost money which is getting harder to find
If you live near a track or mountains or canyons, sport bike will be fun. If you want to do longer rides, they will be kinda crappy unless they’re sport-touring.
lol ya i literally live up in the mountains practically in a canyon. some of butlers best roads are very near me
im also super close to a bunch of BDRs and national land. its real good problems to have but the grass is always greener i guess
i just see some of these dudes fly by and i just get envious. im trying to save/convince my partner to let me get one of them new ninja-400s. they just so cheap i could see that as being a fun time
