I wasn't trying to compare the two, they are a completely different genre of motorcycles. It will be interesting to see how well they sell though. It appears to be a lot of bike for very little money. Maybe if they had put that motor in a XS750 retro style bike I could have had some interest in one. But I like riding (or at least test riding) all motorcycles to see what they are like. Yamaha has a test ride truck that visits my local dealer, and my son and I go up and spend all day there and ride every bike they have from sports bikes to cruisers to adv bikes. Plus the owner of the local shop and I have been personal friends for 40 years and he will let me ride anything I want in the shop.
