    Great choice but beware the sand.
    Careful in the sand,rake angle not good enough!Check this video out
    By lengthening the front end forks,the rake angle has been stretched out,good for offroad.The rake probably now more than 26deg which is more or less what you wanr from an adv.
    Otherwise great choice of bike I have the Scrambler 1200XC and am in the process of fitting new Ohlins Cartridges.
