I'd rather see a 600 version of the RSV4.

Quit with the 600's already, give us a 750 or 800. 600's suck on long trips.

I would like that. I wish there was more than just the GSXR 750 from the Japanese makers.

Because people generally buy 600s for sport touring.

Some people buy only one bike, not 2 or 3.......And they'd like it to be capable of doing a variety of things, including the occasional long distance.

Some people buy sport tourers or DS bikes, I don't, because I don't like the upright riding position.
