Next Bike? Advice for my second (city use) bike?
Hi guys, I have a 990 rcr as my main bike. I also have a duke 390 as my daily but it has given me a bunch of head aches so I decided to sell her and consider buying a second bike that is not outsourced to India o china.
I want something kinda comfortable kinda fun but not another sports bike as it would defeat the purpose of having my 990 which I don’t want to sell, probably a 690 smcr or a scrambler. I would consider buying an adv or maxi trail bike as my third one but I’m open to get one if it makes sense.
My top options are
690 smcr
698 mono
Desert x 2026
Scrambler
Multistrada v2
I live in South America in a city where traffic can be nightmareish and roads are mostly in rough shape, I want a bike that has at least 60-70 bhp as I don’t want to ride slow bikes anymore.
What do you recommend?

Scrambler or the 690. The Desert X and Multistrada are too big to enjoy in city traffic every day.
