Motorcycle Consumer News has a review of 06 AE.

They claim its the best selling Sport-tour bike in the world. 28% of the market.

I guess we all know why.

I'm confused. You said the "AE" is the best selling. Isn't that the auto shift version? I assume you/they mean the FJR is the best selling?!.

Aaaaannnnnddd, that would be 28% of the Sport-Touring market, right? What other bikes do they place in that category? RT, RS, ST13, Concours, FJR, Futura, ST3, ST4, what else?

Well, I'm fairly certain that the FJR doesn't command 28% of the worldwide motorcycle sales. And lt's face it, most people can turn anything into a Sports-tourer with some add-on panniers or soft luggage..... :dribble:

MM2 - You mustn't forget the Triumph Sprint ST!

Explains why the next ST is gonna be revamped so soon (for Honda), there'll be a new killer Connie with that 1400 motor and that BMW put the FJR squarely in its sights with the GT (too bad the missed the price point by a friggin' country mile!).

What? A BMW? A piece of kraut krap? A power ranger? A pimply faced 13 year old with way too much time in front of the computer?

Doesnt Suzuki put the Hayabusa in a Sport Touring category? If so, then that 28% is pretty impressive, cuz I know that Suzi has sold ........a nad still selling a ton of Haya's. That is, until the new Kawi hit the streets.
