I've never ridden a touring bike or dirt bike of any kind so I'm not the best person to reply to your question. Here's my opinion though:
I've ridden over bumpy city roads, very bumpy mountain roads, roads with some gravel and another which was almost pure sand: The YBR is still smooth and comfortable over bumps and small holes doesn't seem to have any problems with a little bit of gravel, however, the sandy road was tricky and I almost lost it over a thick patch of gravel while riding around an outdoor car-park last night. It's definitely a street bike but it can handle a little off-road if the need arises.
