just maybe this ewan and charlie thing has changed the bike market enuff permanently, maybe sportsbikes may never be as popular again...but Yam in particular doesnt have themodel range to compete in the current market , without slashing prices.ie sell on price alone Given market realities, that wont happen, hence why I say they are sitting on the fence right now, unwilling to do too much r & d.IMO it is just now a road biased gen3 fazer could pick up some good sales, but would cost too much to develop for them to do it.Sadly the fazer could even be phased out?..however as Yam are still happy to make the even older FJR...who knows !
