Hey all! I have been riding off and on for the last 6 years or so. Started out with a DR650 and moved to a Street Tripple R. For my next bike I was thinking a scrambler 1200 - something a bit more relaxed. Thoughts?
 
First of all, welcome. I don't have any advice on what bike to pick but here's a few questions to get the party started.

What kind of riding do you do? Street only? Off-road stuff sometimes?

How often do you ride? Daily? Weekend warrior only?

How far do you normally travel on a ride? Are you planning long distance stuff or just staying around town?

Do you ride alone or with a passenger?

Are you planning on modifying the bike or keeping it stock?
 
Welcome, rbailey781 :newbie

I second what greenmonster said !
 
:newbie

Someone will say TurboBusa so let’s just get that BS out of the way.

The KTM mid size ADV’s would light my fire if I was not an old road racer that needs the Mach 1 speed once in a while.

@Cornfish ’s bike kind of looks like something that can share anything moto as far as experiences go.
