We’re being a bit playful. There is no SWM RS500R designated as an ‘Adventure’. But playful is the way this bike makes a rider feel…playful in the same way a national A grader would feel entering a C-Grader’s club race. It all seems so easy, and the fun is in being aggressive and watching the slower bikes fall behind and the surprised terror on the other riders’ faces as you explode past.
Adventure Rider Magazine staffers have been wandering around humming, looking at watches and frowning. The arrival of the SWM Superdual seems to be taking a very long time.
