[Fate]

Great to see another dualsport rider. Although the wee-strom is very much a road bike. From what I read it is like 90/10 split between road/dirt. I’m looking at a 2008 KLR650 (something like 70/30) or an older KLR (near 50/50). I plan on mostly commuting so I may start with something smaller like an XT225. How do you find the Wee-Strom to be a as a first bike? I sat on a few KLRs and they are beasts compared to all of the smaller dual sports. My shop right now has a 2008 that has been lowered and has a Corbin dished seat and I’m going to see if I can run over and take a sit on it and see if the extra stability and ability to have both feet fully flat would give me the confidence to have a beast like that as a first bike.
