In my opinion the Honda as a streetbike is more build for plain surfaces. Even rolling down from a higher sidewalk can damage the upper side of the engine and exhaust system as I unluckily found out. No big damage but enough to know the small limits of this bike construction for this kind of riding.

I have accidentally done several miles on single lane, dirt/jagged rock roads in the North Carolina mountains. Up and over 2 mountains to be specific. Would I do it again given a choice, no, but, she came out the other side with only a chain adjustment needed. I was very impressed.
Am I saying she's an ADV bike, of course not, but she sure surprised the heck outta me with her versatility and poise.
