New Yamaha Transcontinental Tourer
#16
I like really like the styling from all angles.

-Air cooled V-twin with external oil tank and cooler between the forks. I wonder if there are thermostatically controlled fans integrated behind the oil cooler.
-Range: 6.6 gallon tank at 34 mpg = 224 miles. The ST has a 7.7 gallon tank w/ 45 mpg= 346 miles.
-low seat height of 27.7 inches
-20 years of refining 4 valves per cylinder, 2 spark plugs per cylinder, pent roof design vs new Milwaukee "8", lol.

I don't do 2-up riding so this bike and competitors are not on my list.
