If I didn't have my current bikes and needed to go buy something new - what would I buy? If the description includes the words "Hypermotard, Naked, Street Fighter, or Urban Assault"....it isn't something I am going to want to own (I likely would eagerly take a ride on yours). My Savage Cafe' solves my sunny day local ride on the backroads, my Sport Touring bikes fill my need for longer rides where I would like a windshield and some luggage....and a place for Deb to sit when she wants to ride along.
I just went and looked at the offerings from Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha and Kawasaki......about the only thing that looked like something I would own is the W800.
So I looked at BMW...nothing in their current lineup I would buy.
I looked at Ducati - nothing.
I looked at Royal Enfield. Maybe the Scram411 would do for the local and off road adventures. The Interceptor is nice....but it has a chain.
I looked at Moto Guzzi.....they have the most potential to entice me to buy something with their new v100 Sport Touring bike.
It appears that if I want a "new" motorcycle I am going to have to buy an older one. Some of the old BMW bikes are appealing to me.
I like the looks of the older BMW R1100RS.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_R1100RSThe older Moto Guzzi Norge is a nice sport touring bike.

https://cadrecycle.com/2000-moto-guzzi-quota-1100es-w-9500-miles-7500/As you can see.....my current interest is for mid-size sport touring bikes that have 2 cylinders sticking out the sides....and a drive shaft!
Currently my F800GT is the bike that fills that need, and it does it very nicely. I bought it used and got a pretty good price, and the belt drive is carefree and lasts 50,000 miles or so. I currently have 27,000 miles on the bike and I wear out a set of tires every year! It is staying in my garage for a long time.
