One appears to be off road and the other 2 appear to be different types of street/touring tires.
What's the difference/significance of the latter 2?

Bill hits the highlights pretty well. The three tires represent touring, sport, and dual-sport riding. And the idea is to not be brand-specific although you could argue the tires represent a specific brand endorsement. But we are talking bikes here, not tires.
And the GS/GSA is still one of the ugliest bikes on the planet, but not as ugly as the Multistrada and the Honda PC800 of course.

That is correct Fran! The compass is intended to portray travelers, across the globe. It is the rider that makes the difference. No matter what we ride, or how we choose to get there.Originally posted by FR4N View PostAgreed! Very well said.
