Greetings from mid-america USA. Go Chiefs!!! (sorry)

I currently ride a 2017 Africa Twin DCT and really like it but;
*On 2 up the front end gets a little squirrelly
*Not riding much dirt but I do have a long gravel drive that I must travel every time I ride
*I like shaft drives
*I dislike tubes
So, I have never owned a Honda V4 but it sounds intoxicating.
Been riding for over 40 years, all kinds of bikes and most types of riding.
Maybe 85/15 road vs. light off road riding now, maybe even 90/10
What say the brain trust here?
Btw I’d be willing to trade for one but would like to stay at a 2017 and DCT and CON USA please.
Cheers!
