For all the fellow Multistrada riders here; any tips, discussion, ideas, suggestions on off-road riding? I feel I can push it to the (my) limit on pavement but realized I know nothing about enduro style riding. I have ridden the occasional smooth dirt or gravel road but met my match on some fluffy sand. Lucky it only cost me a broken mirror.

I'd like to get input from experienced off-roaders regarding techniques for getting our moneys worth out of enduro mode. What is the secret of doing this successfully?

I.m.o I would get a "real" dirt bike. That way you could have a lot more fun, without the weight/ expense of damaging the multi! But it would be sick to throw real knobbies on it and try some hill climbs!!!!!

Not the hill climbs I did on my real dirt bike. The Multi would be broken quickly!

Riding a 150lb dirt bike translates directly over. Dirt is dirt. It requires a different approach than pavement.

I've said it before. The Multi is not a dirt bike.
