The deal as I see it? Sport bikes have become soooooo track focused and performance based that alot of bikers dont want to live with their narrow focus but are at the same time put off by the weight and numb handling of the sport tourer bikes. These folks want an exciting, versatile ride off the showroom, not buying a GSXF1250 and having to mod it to suit. It is a niche for sure but one the Kawi will likely rule as the other manus have let that area slide.
