Gotcha. Now you have the SM right? How different is the SM from the normal dual? Is the gearing different?

How does it do at 60+ mph? Are you pigging off the rev limiter? Does it feel unstable at higher speeds? I think those are his main concerns, especially if he gets the knobby tired dual.

I think he'd like the SM better (or a FZ6/1) but his daughters ride ATVs and he needs something to go on trails so he can ride with them.
