New Tourer

Here is a new "beefer"
This thing would overload most 1/2-ton pickups

And it would most certainly unload your wallet.

It is a good looker though. If Victory would have had that styling, they might still be in business.

Yeesh! That thing costs more than my first house.:rolleyes1:

Beefer all right, 950+ pounds. Really? I would not want a bike weighing that much.

I not sure the world needs another H-D. Belt drive +, and air cooled - (wonder about heat), but I sure Yamaha has made a nice ride for those riders that like that style machine. I think the bagger segment has gotten kind of crowed, I guess this can take the place of Victory in the market. Does look like the passenger would be comfortable.

Yeah, it is another HD clone. Yammy may be a bit late to the market with this one though as HD has had two declining quarterly sales reports..... p'raps we are running out of pirates?

As you increase the displacement of an air-cooled engine, it becomes more and more difficult to pass emissions and also avoid toasting the rider at stop lights or in slow traffic.
