I think that motor may carry the boxer into the 22nd century. I don't have any use for Hill Assist or shift assist and I think it it too pointy for my tastes, but I do like it. I am paying more attention to the mid size bikes these days, but if I ever decide to do another 10,000 mile plus tour - this bike would be attractive. I hate hotels and I am not sure I am tough enough for continuous tent camping anymore.

Red Bull?
I am planning on duplicating this set-up, but with a lower-priced Nemo tent.

Is there a tree selection? I wouldn't want to get any sap on my bike.

Because Mr. Assessor also has to replace parts that may have only received a fright.
