I own a Vara and I love it to bits, I could ride to the moon on it, but only if someone paved a road there for me.
Awesome road tourer, if you never go off road and you own a 1200GS you just spent too much money in my book, you should have bought a Varadero, and at last weekend's Touratech event, it was a lot easier for me to find my bike afterwards too
If I was a contender for Worlds Strongest Man I would consider taking her off road, and I believe that there are nutters who would. Needless to say I'm still in the market for a bike I'd be more comfortable with when the tarmac goes away. I've had to ask for help picking her up in the mud already, and that wasn't all that much fun.
