Out of all that has been said though, I personally would have the KTM 990SM all day. That has been one of if not my all time dream bike for as long as it came out and I was interested in bikes. I have seen and sat on one in the flesh, absolutely amazing. Stonking V twin, bags of charachter and torque up to 100mph. Looks badass in my opinion. MT-01 is much much heavier, as such will not be as fun to handle. Down in the southwest where I am, the roads are garbage so the SM suspension would make great sense where the MT-01 would struggle. KTM may have had reliability issues way back but nowadays nothing to worry about. With some light mods you can wheelie them all day long, dont see why it wouldn't tour either there is a tourer version but it looks a bit naff. Either of those choices are class though. I also like the XJR1300, ZRX 1200 and GSX 1400 too but would rather have the KTM. It definitely matches all of your criteria.
Wondered when you'd pop up yamazer
We are clearly as confused as each other :b
Great minds think alike....even if we arent using joined up thinking

Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
