Came across FortNine from the e-Bike review. Not currently in the market for a motorbike (spouse block), but really enjoying his presentations.

They have some charisma to them

I'm working in Vietnam at the moment, and there's people achieving things on 40 year old 110cc scooters every day that put "Adventure Bikes" to shame ... I think they're like modern pickup trucks - marketing to people that bigger equals better

Fr, gotta know how to use it

Not just how to use it, but knowing that sometimes less is more is useful.

On this mornings commute I passed 3 workmen all on one regular 125cc scooter, towing a load of tools and 10' 2x4s on a 3-wheel trailer. Ironically, that would be more difficult to do with a big ADV bike

@InternetCitizen2 I think people make too big of a deal about some of these things. Looks like a cool bike to me.
