"This year's incarceration"? Don't you mean, "incarnation"?

Funny as hell, right. I had a KLR 250 when they came out in '86 great bike. It got long in tooth and cost twice what it cost originally 20 years later. Also my friend has the Honda, great bike but never forget it is not an MXer that mo fo is HEAVY. BMW is best city bike for Boston and NYC I see many of them, probably a better choice than my Sprint 955i in many ways but I can't let go of that Triumph for a thumper, gotta find a way to make a ton of bucks and have two bikes.

[MazzaJF]

@dondondonman You CAN'T go wrong with an XR650L. Especially because your really tall (compared to me at least), it will fit you perfectly. Good Luck!

[eltotoX]

Wow, what a big pile of nothing. No shit the XR is the oldest, the BMW is the most street oriented and the KLR is good for long journeys. I'm not usually the kind to bash on others' videos, but come on... you guys get paid for this.

The XR650L is a giant dirt bike on steroids. But with the right tires is a blast to ride around town. Mine gets a consistent 45 mpg whether trails or street.
