I'm sure the hardcore COGs will wonder why Kawasaki has just cut out the entire market of sport touring riders who loved getting a coast-to-coast machine that has an MSRP of under $10k (8500), for a machine that will now compete for a segment of the FJ, ST, and Beemer high dollar market. Heck, for the price of an ST or FJ, you could get 3 good used Connies.
