Fire roads are easy mode on an ADV bike. They can do double track quite well too. They start to struggle in mud, sand and single track.

I'd presume that pure street motorcycles would fair pretty badly on even double track.

So yeah, ADV would seem to be useful for something other than wanting to look rugged.
