ADV for a smaller dude

Hey everyone! I’m 1.70cm (5’7 inches) and looking to upgrade to a mid level adventure touring / sport touring bike. I will use it for longer rides, usually for trips with my wife. Currently looking into Tracer 7/700, V-strom 650, NC750X, and Tiger Sport 660.

What do you guys think? Am I too small for these bikes? Would you suggest any other models?

Am I too short to join the club?

Hello everyone!

I am crazy about CP2 engine and looking forward to upgrade to a Tracer 7 or Tracer 700. Been going back and forth between XSR700 and Tracer 7/700, decided Tracer will be the better choice. The problem is, I am 170cm (5’7) and don’t know if this bike will be too big for me. Would love to get all of your opinion!

Will be using this bike mostly with my wife on long trips and also for daily commuting. So would love to get further opinion from everyone who rode two up!

Am I too small for V-strom?

Hello everyone!

I am 170cm (5’7 inches) tall. Looking into upgrading to a V-strom but I have doubts. Are there any short riders on V-strom? Do you think it would be manageable for me? Will use it for long trips with my wife.

Edit: Thank you all for the responses, I wasn’t expecting this many responses in this short amount of time. I am thinking of getting a 650Dl or XT 650 version. Given the comments, I will give it a try before finalising my purchase.

Egzozumu çizdiler

Gözüm gibi baktığım motorumu birisi çizmiş. Kim olduğunu tespit etmeye çalışıyorum site yönetiminden kamera görüntüsü istedim. Bu ciziğe bir çare var mı sizce kardeşler?

Is it really that bad?

Thinking of upgrading to a second hand Scrambler Icon Dark as they are somewhat affordable in my country (Türkiye). Honestly, I’m in love with Scrambler culture and really find the bike appaealing. However, I heard so many bad comments about service and maintenance, especially with regards to price of desmo maintenance.

So to all the fellow Ducatisast, is it really that expensive to maintain this bike?

P.S. I’ll be upgrading from a Honda CL250 (basically SCL500 but 250cc in my country)
