After riding the Harley Davidson Pan America this year both on and off-road, I decided I wanted to get a lighter-weight adventure bike. Initially, I had planned on replacing the Pan America, but it is such an amazing bike for a lot of what I do, I just couldn't see getting rid of it. The more I've been riding adventure, the less I've been riding street, so I traded the Aprilia Tuono 660 in on a Tuareg 660. I evaluated my use case and needs against several lightweight and mid-weight adv bikes. My list included: KTM 390 Adventure BMW G 310 GS Yamaha Tenere 700 Aprilia Tuareg 660 Ducati DesertX Honda CB500x I used a variety of metrics to compare the bikes: Weight Seat Height HP/Torque Ground Clearance Front and Rear Suspension Travel Tire Arrangement Cost In the end, the Aprilia Tuareg came out on top (for me), and I'm looking forward to getting out and exploring more off-road terrain.
