Agreed. Although I'd include the R1150RS as a Sport tourer. The Sprint ST is the most attractive Sport Tourer today, for my money. Most of the other bikes that claim to be Sport Tourers are way too heavy. The BMW is too expensive and BMW quality isn't any better these days.

Yeah. And Honda would also install a voltage regulator that's guaranteed to fail.



Honda could hardly charge less for a 900cc class triple than they do for the 800cc V-4. Or could they? After all, Suzuki charges more for the 400cc DP than the 650cc DP.



Honda could sell the bikes only by prior deposit like Yamaha does the FJR1300. Yeah. That's the ticket. Pretend you bike has exclusivity and the rubes will line up like lemmings.
