I will say this... from my test ride on a 1250 the smoothness of the engine and the power delivery really remind me of a Goldwing. I too would have a hard time and go back and forth haha. Whatever you ride I'll be ready to support you that's for sure!
Dan, would you happen to have a .gpx or something with all of these roads on it? I have the HC ADV 500 .gpx but I'm always hunting for more roads out here, since I live here. Enjoyed the video! Thank you!

Hey Hazcat! Yes sir new Seat Concepts seat. Did you say you are familiar with the Arizona area? If so, do you know any areas that are nice to ride during the winter months? Thanks for watching and supporting Hazcat.
@@dantheman4life Depends on what ya want. Hilly, Joshua trees, dirt go to the NW area (Kingman to Dolan Springs up to Lake Meade) 3-5,000 feet ele. More forested look at NE area in the Tonto National Forest 7,000 ft ele. South is pretty flat desert. Temps will vary with elevation. Winter can see snow in 5-7K plus elevations.
Congratulations on the soon to be bike Frankie! I went with it over the DR for the weight savings. I wanted a bike that could do single track and still get up to speed on the highway if needed. I did go back and forth between a DR or a 650L but I’m pleased with my pick so far. I knew I would get a bigger ADV bike again so it helped make decision a little easier.
I can understand where you are coming from. I paid more than I wanted to, but they gave me more on my trade than anyone else would so it still worked out. Keep looking and something will come up for you!
I enjoyed watching your video. Thanks. More video please.
Thanks for watching Beomsu! I'll see what I can do.
Nice ride, your going to have to show me this ride once I’m able to ride again
You let me know when Tony and I'll be happy to ride. Hope you are healing up! Thanks for watching!
....enjoy your dream my friend
Thank you, I will!
Awesome ride! And yes, treat yourself don’t beat yourselves! You’re going to get me back on an adventure bike and soon 😂
Haha you so crazy G! Thanks for the support and I hope you can be back out on the road soon!
@@dantheman4life I’m less than a week away but the past 5 weeks has me lusting for a leftover GS. Hey! you never know. 😂 😂

@@hazcat640 thanks for info Hazcat!
I live in north Texas and plan to buy one.
Awesome! They really are great bikes. You will enjoy it!
Nice! I’m about to go from a Thruxton R to KTM500 - any reason you went with this over the DR? Oh from Houston btw. Safe riding !

@@dantheman4life thanks man ! Now if I can find a dealer that won’t charge an arm and a leg on the new bike and kill me on my trade we are in business
