#ygrps-yiv-1003446498 p {margin:0;}I've seen pictures of people who have put DS tires on 'em and take them off-road. Personally if I had one, I'd use it AS-IS.  It would be a great little street bike that you wouldn't have to worry so much about pot-holes and bumps.  That was the biggest problem I had when I was commuting on my old Seca II.  It was a nice handler, but even a medium-sized bump in the road translated into loose teeth.  The Versys seems to be a nice take on a street bike.  Grippy, quick and enough travel to soak up L.A. streets.

I sure like the Versey especially the new black / flat black one. Seems to be a nice size bike. Not too big or too small and probaly do gravel roads pretty good.

The Moto Guzzi 750 Breva has a listed top speed of 110mph. OK since the most I've gotten out of my klr at this altitude is maybe 95, those bikes would have just the extra power I need. But wait !! The klr listed top speed is 108mph. There have been discussion here on this topic. I don't remember anyone going over 100mph except down hill. Are the Transalp and Breva top speeds ridiculous as well ? Bogdan
