Why I Bought a Suzuki V-Strom 650 Instead of an FJR1300

After years of road riding, I thought my next motorcycle would be another sports tourer. I was seriously considering a Yamaha FJR1300. But the more I thought about the kind of riding I actually wanted to do next, the more I realised I wasn't just looking for another motorcycle. I was looking for another way to travel. Gravel roads. National parks. Forests. Camping. Weekend escapes. Places I'd normally explore in a 4WD but had never considered reaching on two wheels. That led me to adventure bikes and eventually to the Suzuki V-Strom 650XT. This is the beginning of my transition from experienced road rider to complete beginner at adventure riding. I'll be documenting what I learn, the bike, the modifications, the mistakes and the trips along the way.
