Next year's Kawi KLR will get fuel injection, due to emissions . Couldn't nail down a Suz sales guy for the S40 to ask about the '18. Should be interesting.
The new Rebel 500 is built like a brick: 41mm forks and 130/80 front tire. TUFF! The seat is awkward, no allowance for movement. Pegs feel awkward, need moved forward about 8".
There is a new Versys 300 twin! Beautiful and expensive.
Triumph canada a no-show again, morons!
As I stated a year ago the best bang bike is the yam FZ07:
high quality, high power, low weight, low price.
Get this: price differential between FZ07 and Versys 300/Rebel 500 is $1000!
Cheers! Cool

Just the EFI, or do we get other improvements?

Zipidachimp, did you get a chance to sit on the 300 Versy, is it tall?
