If i was in the market for a tourer I'd seriously consider that with the new dash and build quality.

They start at £8,499 OTR. which is cheaper than my 765R.

Yep, I could be tempted to switch over when I've had my fun with the Versys.

Check the article date fellas

Thanks Kwacky... Now im really interested, if the MT needs a more practical partner then this could be it.

There's a few adventure bikes to look at. I see they've upgraded the Tracer if you want to stick with Yamaha. KTM are bringing out a 790cc parallel twin, so it'll be like a hooligan version of the Versys. There's an adventure version of that due for 2019 and BMW have upgraded their middleweight GS bikes.
