RE: [ST] Supermotos



Or just wait a year and the Aprilia 450 twin dualsport/motard will be out,
and modify from there.

With supermotos all the rage, here's an idea I'll throw out there.

Take a lightweight v-twin motor (Yamaha's 550 V-twin from the Vision
series would do nicely.) Drop it into a bike like the KLR650. Then make
it so you could easily swap rims front and back. DP tires on wire rims
for going offroad, sticky road tires on mags for paved roads.

Put a comfortable seat on it and a bit of wind protection so you could
tour on it.
