What do all liter-plus adventure bikes these days have in common? Well, quite a lot actually.
They’re all packing powerful engines, way more tech than anybody asked for, and price tags that could land you in generational debt. Bikes like the new BMW R 1300 GS and Ducati Multistrada can easily fetch upwards of $30,000, and quite frankly, only a very small number of folks have the means to buy these top-tier machines.
Luckily, we live in a modern world. And this modern world affords us options—a lot of options. And a good number of these options come from new motorcycle manufacturers looking to make an impact on the global industry.
