I owned a V-Strom about 8-10 years ago. Nice road bike ("adventure-sport"). It was over 400 pounds fueled up, and badly top-heavy! I could ride it on a gravel/dirt on forest roads, but these bikes are not made for off road really. They are road bikes. Dual port tires on these things will slide right out on you easily. I did pick it up once. Nearly killed me! No one rides these bikes on a trail!
