Help me out here please, I would like opinions from owners of one or both bikes. I am in the market for a new (yes new) dual purpose motorcycle. I am looking for something that will take me down gravel roads, through single track trails, etc, to get to remote camping spots and will be able to take me back. I am also looking for a commuter bike for the summer months up here in Anchorage. I've heard pros and cons of each bike.
If a Versys can get me there and back, I don't care what speed I have to go on the gravel roads and dirt tracks.
However,
If a KLR can't sustain a 500 mile road trip at 65 mph without totally destroying my body, I don't want it.
I am torn between a street legal bike that is more capable off road vs a road bike that is somewhat capable of going off road.
Any opinions??
I hope I am in the proper section for this. If not, sorry!
