Caught this beauty on our local Craigslist. After a few double-takes, I couldn’t take my eyes off it.

Nice economical Uber transport.
I'd name it "Kardashian", cause it has a lot of junk in the trunk lol
Here it is going down the road…

I recently watched a video on how Sport Touring bikes are silly, because it's a category that doesn't need to exist, because it doesn't really fill a gap between sporty commuters and ADV bikes. when you can throw a trunk and a windshield on an old SV650 and take it across country i can't help but think it's true.

TLDR; motorcycles are silly.
My wife and I took a driving vacation a month ago to visit friends in the California Sierras. While heading up 395 near Mammoth, we encountered a swarm of Triumph Bonnevilles, all loaded with touring gear. And, not too long ago, I came across a gentleman on an FZ09 laden with three large duffell bags who had just arrived in L.A. from Indiana. I guess you can tour on anything!

lol ... yeah, we sometimes complain a lot 'bout nothin'.
If that guy can carry a fridge on a Cub knock-off, I have no place complaining about having to use a high-falutin' Italian top case to carry my lunch to work.
ROFL
The double-decker windscreen on that SV is amusing too.
