ADVERTURE. A combination of Advertisement and Adventure. Used to describe bikes that are advertised as adventure bikes, with the looks added, but are not designed to leave the asphalt. High weight, cheap suspension and parts, easily damaged unprotected bits (example. Oil filter, exhaust routed under the engine) that are likely to hit the road and bits (example. Handguards, mirrors) that are weak and will break if they hit the ground.
