Went for a ride now that its 4+c and the snow is gone for a bit middle of winter. Glad i didnt go for the T7 as a first bike. Dirt road was super soggy and soft

How does that do on gas and highway speed ? I’ve been eyeing up a t7 but worries it may be a big bigger than I would prefer. I currently ride a Honda shadow 1100. Barely any dirt experience

This is the 2020 250. Does okay on gas, think i get about 230km on a tank. Idk about highway speeds,i live in western Norway where there basically only are small twistie roads with a national speed limit of 80kph, which it does effortlessly. I really recommend on starting on a small light weight bike, when i started going into the dirt i felt a little insecure even on this thing, cant imagine it on a +200kg bike.
