I reckon Yamaha have read the market right. They have been there and done that with the Gen 1 & 2 then along came the Z1000SX in late 2010, the SX is a belting bike no doubt about it. FZ1 lost it's market share so what do Yamaha need to do. Build something that is around £1800 cheaper, make it into a lower powered do it all adventure/sports/tourer. The big Versy is a belter, the new Mk2 SX is a belter. The MT-09 Tracer is well priced and should catch some of those who are replacing the early SX models. I know a couple from the SX forum have gone down this route. Also honda are not replacing the CBF 1000 Mk2 so will catch some from that group as well.
MT-09 Tracer for those who no longer can handle a BIG boy Fazer
