Hoop...You make a very valid point ....Everyones view of Dual Sporting is different....My XR650R has a tall soft foam seat....but it also does some 300 mile dirt only day rides every chance it gets. It's street legal to get from here to there legally!

I hadn't thought about a CORBIN seat, I wonder how the stand up to much too fast get offs!

I think we need to start a rating system for Dual Sporters...How about 1 to 10 with 1 being all dirt and 10 being all pavement.

Put me down as a 1.

Ride on.

PS Check out the RideTexas mag these days.....Dual Sporting is part of their line up now.
