Hello all,

I am sorting out the deal on my MS right now. I will have it soon. I was wondering how the MS does on gravel. Is there a lot of stuff the may get messed up by flying rock, or is it pretty protected. I plan to weld up a set of crash bars with mounts for lights, and maybe a light (possibly Ti) skid plate for mine. I am also getting some of the new Hepco Becker Gobi bags because I have never really liked any of the Ducati bags. I know the multi is a street bike, but I have ridden gravel on everything from vintage ducati sport bikes, lots of single track trails on my 1971 Guzzi 750, tested ABS on BMW police motors at speed on gravel and take my MuZ scorpion anywhere I have to. So I plan on giving my MS the protection it needs to survive. I am just wondering if any one else is riding one on less than paved roads. After all, super moto has some dirt too, right?
