I didn't say they couldn't last. If you skimp on maintenance and/or if you are payingnothers to maintain/repair, they can get expensive fast.

My knowledge of the German motorcycle market is very limited…
Some people say the BMW Motorrad F-series parallel twins are a bit boring, so you might end up with something similar to your former Hondas.
Before owning the Triumph and the Ducati, I was actually considering the 900XR because I was happy with the brand. I used to own an F800R, and in hindsight it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great eithe; just kind of meh.
Personally, I enjoyed the Triumph triple much more, and the sound and torque of the Ducati V2 are just something else.
I think that was the previous gen of the F series before this one, that ran from like 2008ish to 2019ish, after that they got the new twin motor. 50ccs bigger and it became a 270-degree crank p-twin instead of the old dull 360-degree.
I could be totally wrong, joojel it.
Just broken in but light in details. 
2020 BMW F900XR
Buddy who is off looping Australia for the coming months says the Tiger triple he is riding is best bike he's owned. FWIW
The BMW might be tall for you Mimico. I did not like the ergos on my 2017 300G ...or the clutch. 32.5 " seat
Not great fuel mileage and a 15.5L tank size
I'd take a 650 Vstrom over that 900. Vstrom has a 20L or 22L tank.

I think you're right. The 650 VSTROM/VERSYS are at the top of the list.Just broken in but light in details.

Tiger / BMW F / Fazer / Tenere are very nice...but are much more expensive unless I go back a handful more years.
Africa Twin would be my #1...but damn the pricing!
