I think this is a fair and somewhat humorous review of the bike. It's not for everyone and Honda almost always makes niche bikes.
I have a Varadero that is much more comfortable to ride long distances and offers better wind protection. But, the AT is hundred plus lighter and easier to use in rougher terrain than the Varadero, which with luggage was difficult, but not impossible to ride.
I think the AT will give more off-road ability without necessarily being used by most to go out on difficult single track. It'll be an awesome gravel-plus bike. Want to get gnarly - XR500, CRF450 (maybe even CRF250L), etc.
