other than BMW and Yami,...is anyone else making sport tourers with drive shaft ? I think Honda and Kawi gave up and Suzi only has chain drive
 
Triumph Tiger 1200 comes in a road version and it’s shaft drive.
The Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello is shaft drive, it will be released sometime this winter or next spring..
 
BMW 1250 RT and BMW 1250 GS both work for Sport Touring. Remember ... Bring More Wallet.

I'd sell off all my other bikes if they eventually make hardbags for that MG

Friend had the 1250 GS. He says it's the first motorcycle he's had that makes him want to give up motorcycling. Activity looking to replace it. Would go back to the FJR if they were still available here (he's had two in the past).
 
I thought the concours14 was discontinued? But according to the internet now i see it's still available...

It's been out of production for a few years. The Stelvio, Griso and Norge all went out of production when they decided not to rework the 1200 engine for Euro 5 emissions. It's too bad because it was a sweet engine - lots of torque and character.
