What? You can't run the same hardscrabble on the S10 that you can on a 2-fiddy? Must be a riding skillz problem.
I kid... I kid. Different tools for different-er rides and different riders Please read on...
I don't know where people got the idea that 1/4 ton ADV bikes are the equivalent of 1/4 liter dual sports. That is clearly not the case. All throughout motorcycling, and most other equivalent things in life, we encounter compromises and trade-offs. Although I do not own one, I can see the allure of a big shaft drive traily, with a robust final drive, and the ability to chew up big chunks of pavement and still be competent in the rough pavee and offroads.
It is really just all about what your individual mission is, what you hope to accomplish, and then finding the right tool to do that job.
People invest far too much emotion into what their prior choices have been. They feel a need to defend those prior choices (to the death if necessary) for what reason I can not comprehend.
Sometimes we make guesses at what we want to do in the future, and then life does what it does and changes our paths, our needs, and our desires.
Why stay staked down to those prior estimations? If there is a tool (bike) that better fits your needs at that point in your life, go get that thing and carry on. Why on earth would you feel lessened or any amount of defeated by switching horses? Just realize that you have grown and changed and that is just a part of YOUR life.
And just ignore those other dweebs that are all hung up on their previous choice.
