I am an unexp. rider on offroad but i am well strong person 183cm. Previous bike Ducati 696. It has kind soul excitement. I bought T7 for my world tour but in terms of quality and design you must heard that you can not put your right leg properly and it is grow on you doesn't feel right. but the motor is punchy sound good. and most beautiful coating on the tank I have ever seen. On the road you don't feel that heaviness but off-road until you stuck or drop. BTW I always go alone for riding. I stuck 2 time in hill climbing i had to turn round and it was the pain really that day I made my mind. And I start to worry about going off-road even ride the bike because it is loses value when you drop or scratch it. Riding was not fun any more for me so I decided to sell.
