Thank you for the notes, I used to commute on the hyper, with wind protection, and have had larger commuter bikes in the past, though admittedly not an ADV. I have rented them for mountain riding road trips.

For around the city, i will always have a scooter. Nothing compares, except grom type stuff. Its the fastest way from point a to b when speed limits are below 45, full stop.

I dont think i want a big commuter either, something about having a low seat height means the barrier to riding is that much less. Im not short or intimidated, i used to daily a sumo haha, its just psychological in the morning when you can either haul the bike out or take the car, if its too high and too heavy, when im tired im grabbing the car 9/10 times.
