My 'issue' is that I'm tall/biggish (not adv wide) and riding a decently quick bike that's quick through the gears and a decent shove on the motorway stepping back/down feels just a chore.

I rode a few 500s, 650s etc and I just found it such a chore. Just too much.

Lightness first then engine size. But it needs to have at least 80bhp...

I just think 44bhp is just too pedestrian. That's not testosterone talking just a spoilt rider.
I’ll just leave this here.

Nevergonnahappen, but that with the 750 Hornet/Transalp engine would interest me.

I had a 2021 cb500x, nice riding position but painfully slow, got a 750 hornet now handles and goes really well but not that comfortable on long distances.
Had a sit on new the transalp too big for me, not much smaller than the African twin.
FFS honda just but the 750 motor in the Cb !!

These adventure bikes are the MC equivalent to SUVs and leave me stone cold.

I hoped this is what the Transalp would be, but instead they put tubed wheels on it to make a faux bog hopper.
