Here is a new prototype adventure tourer. I have an MT07 and the motor has plenty of power and torque. This looks like a nice entry level bike.

Figure around 400 lbs.
Saw the tracer at the MotoGP. Nice midsize, reasonable price. Yamaha is coming out with interesting new bikes. Saw the Niken too. Would like a test ride on that beast.

I think the Kiken is the answer to a question nobody asked. However that being said the motor is the same one as in my FJ09 so I’ll bet it’s a hoot to ride. I wanna demo one.
I would love to see it with the lock in the stand up straight position like the Paggio scooter does. But Nooo...

I haven’t heard for sure if it’s an actual production bike or coming here. ???
