For those with a bike, you will understand what I mean, those of you without one, call in at East Coast Motorcycles and let their friendly staff help you choose the right model for your lifestyle.
Dual purpose bikes are definitely becoming so much more popular these days because they afford you the best of both worlds. You get to flit across the freeway at phenomenal pace and when you arrive at your destination, you can still scramble across rough terrain and dirt roads without a care in the world.
Take for instance the Kawasaki KLR650 dual-purpose machine. Powerful off road performance with balance, grip and maneuverability and then on the open road you would swear you were on a cruiser. Dirck Edge from Motorcycle Daily says of the KLR650, "The KLR offers substantial off-road capabilities while being one of the most comfortable (if not the most comfortable) dual sports ever made for highway travel."
In the Triumph range the Tiger 800 and Tiger 800XC open up a whole range of 'go anywhere' adventure destinations. Tigers are designed from the ground up with dual purpose riding in mind. Take the `triumph Explorer for example, engineering brilliance that allows you to travel through bundu or across the country.
