With 17" wheels and 100% street tires I can't imagine any experienced rider would intend to go "off road" with this. They make an actual "enduro" model if that's what you want to do but I have no interest in that sort of riding on a bike this big. For cripe sakes I might be able to pick it up once but the second time I'd be crying for my old KDX. (That should clue you in on how long it's been since I've ridden off road...)
Weight's a funny thing. I think this bike is a tank at over 500lbs. Compared to a full blown touring bike it's a featherweight even fully loaded. It's all perspective I guess. It's got hard bags (shown in first pic) but I prefer not using them and have soft tail bags instead. It scoots along pretty well regardless.
200-300 mile days? That's sport bike mileage. Well, ok, 300 miles on a 996 made me want to take up stamp collecting instead, but that's an extreme example. I'm a bit surprised you think that's all a Multi is good for? Is it the lack of a gigantic windscreen? FWIW I cut 3" off the screen on my V85 and have since put a shorter than stock screen on this too. I've done 200-300 mile days on fully naked bikes, it's not an issue. That said I'm not a fan if riding on interstates. BORING... but unavoidable if you live in the midwest and want to get anywhere before your vacation days run out. (I'm retired now but not everyone I ride with is).
I've RIDDEN quite few other brands, even briefly worked for one of them in a previous life. But when it comes time to spend my own money I know what I like.
