The joys of riding a motorcycle with long travel suspension go far beyond nonpaved surface.
This is a MOTO GUZZI forum, isn’t it? Maybe some of you guys should rethink some of your choices.

If you love plastic and ugly. I had one for 6 months. It did nothing for me.
Nothing mate..It was a 750 SR, but I decided I wanted to tour Australia seriously and then see the world, so off she went.Identical to this one in every way.
I think you guys are missing the "best bike" ever.......
I don't see dirt bikes and adventure bikes being the deal for me. I avoid dirt roads where possible and trails altogether. If I wanted to ride those, I'd get a dedicated machine but it certainly wouldn't be my best all-around.
"all around" would include unpaved roads. You don't need a dedicated 'dirt bike' for running those roads. Just a bike with long-travel suspension.I've been lucky enough to enjoy some beautiful unpaved roads in Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico on the Quota 1100 ES I once owned. You're missing out by not giving them a try. Monument Valley. Valley of the Gods. Muley Point. Burr Trail. Alpine Loop. Ophir Pass. NM-456. Etc, etc...
Again, adventure bike doesn't mean best bike.
Yes. Correct. However, title of this thread is: "Best all around bike". not "best bike".Just like a Corvette is a great sportscar, but not a good "all around" car. And, something like a 6-cylinder Subaru Outback is a great all-around car, though not real sporty and not real luxurious, but can be used for anything, anywhere.I think we need to get you on a V85TT.
Fixed my statement. I've said for years that the Honda Accord is the best all around car. Perhaps ID-ing an Adv bike would be like saying an Escalade AWD is the best all around car? Jeep whatever? Subbie Outback? There might be a reason that Accord sells more than all those put together. OK, maybe a Dodge Ram truck? I drive my pickup at least once a month. My SUV gets driven when I don't want to get my cars dirrty.
