More lower, please.
I just finished a 2500 mi. tour in CO and UT, on my FJ and my buddy's 1150GS. Lemme tell you, the GS works a LOT better on the dirt roads we sometimes had to ride to get to good (free) campsites, and works wonderfully on the pavement, as well, even though it has no top-end hit whatsoever. But the KTM could weigh 200 lb. less, could handle better, and could be my perfect bike, with Tourance tires or similar. Burns, get on these guys! I'm only 5'8" and I just can't ride a bike with a freakin' 92 cm saddle height, not with luggage, anyway.
