Yamaha has the motor now. 700 twin, 6 speed trans. Instead of the fz6, 7, 8, 9 ect ect you think they could have built one dual sport.... without the use of 3 seperate ecu's.

That would be a perfect size! 700 cc twin. I wish Kawasaki would put the Versys motor into the KLR too and be done with it - it would be the perfect bike.

That would be AWESOME!!!! I bet that 390 Adventure would sell like hotcakes here in Sask - under the 400 cc limit so plates would be cheap!! Wonder how it would be on the highway, but then a KLR is not as much fun on the highway as a bigger bike either, and the 390 makes the same power as the KLR...

I can cruise at 110 no problem
I changed the rear sprocket to 48 from 45 tooth for more lower power
Not sure what top speed is. Forget
