Passenger pegs? What the hell are those. They need to ride their own bike. That, or if you're looking to ride with a passenger, than you likely don't really need a bike that is designed for a much more aggressive off road bias style of riding opposed to many current Adv bikes.

Going through a bunch of pictures and video still. Ended up getting home Thursday around midnight. After an 860 mile day.....I was beat. Grand total of miles clocked came to 2600 miles with 350 spent off road. Had an absolute blast and got to hang with old friends and meet new ones. More to come.....

I agree. To put a bike in a survey that is still completely rumor and speculation would've just been silly. Kind of like putting the rumored "F900" in there that the spyshot pictures were damn near viral over recently. That bike looks like the G310GS to me slightly made over. In the trailer, it looks like it's tiny compared to the F800GSA. I'd absolutely love to see a redesigned midsize F800/900 but that doesn't look like it to me. Now, the T7 on the other hand is a confirmed model from Yamaha. I just hope the US doesn't get ripped for an extra year like with the Africa Twin because it's released on the wrong side of the pond first. Booooo!!

A CRF 450 would be amazing!

I'm not sure I get Visorhead's critiques. It has a long seat because it's a dirt machine; the early KTM 950s had a fairly similar seat before going with more of a stepped style. Tall seat height and peg placement are consistent with this being intended for real dirt use, although I wouldn't be surprised to see this compromised in final design. The rider in the pictures doesn't seem to have an issue putting a foot down, but I don't know how tall he is either. Passenger peg hangers would mount to the subframe the same as any other dualsport does, like how the exhaust is mounted in the pictures. The tank does seem to flair out a little earlier than I'd prefer but from the pictures below it does not seem to splay his knees too much. I doubt it will come to production as-is, but besides throwing on turn signals I don't see why it couldn't.

I need it. I don't know what I need it for exactly, but I just know I need to have it when I look at it.
