My $ is on a xcross between the WeeStrom and Dr650...
The adv market has gotten too big, displacement wise and too costly.. KTM 790, Yamaha Tenere t7 (awesome) gs800/50 all the way up and over 1000cc .. All great for the occasional dirt road, but pricey as your looking at throwing around 10k+ of bike on anything rougher.. it’s why I didn’t off-road my ktm990adv
The All purpose dirt touring kLR is gone... So if Suzuki has a smaller compact parallel twin and parts bins the rest, so you can do both off-road and highway without a big tag.. it’ll fill the niche left by the Klr and offer more
The new strom made a point of saying it was inspired by the DR Big of old, but never actually called it the Dr Big
I think we’re gonna get a DR Big.. The orig sv was a hoot (I had one, along side a hawk gt). It was bang for your buck one of the best out there.. I think Suzuki is gonna try and do it again for the adv crowd
