Yes to the Boise question... I also was a returning rider after being away for twenty some years (that was ridiculous, but another story). Picked up a used bike about 2 years ago and then jumped to the WRR last March. It is awesome. I could not be happier for my type of riding. Guess it depends on personal choice and abilities, but the WRR gives me everything that I need in a motorcycle. Versatility, performance and reliability.
I would like to say that I ride 50/50 street/dirt, but in actuality, after a year and 4500 miles, it has been more like 90/10. I am planning to do more off road this coming year.
If I were to set out again to purchase a new dual sport, there would be absolutely no hesitation on my part to go with the WRR.
