I am still waiting to see if Yamaha throws their hat into the middleweight ADV category. Something based off the FJ09 would be hard for me to resist.
From everything I've read, it's more likely Yamaha will make a mid-size ADV twin based on the FZ-07 motor, which I have to admit probably appeals to me even more than this Honda 1000. I also think if they price it right, Yamaha dealers will be flooded with KLR650 trade ins!
