I understand that you currently have about 50% of the motorcycle market in Thailand - want the rest of the big bike segment?
No sense in giving me a 20 year old KLR with FI. You need to stop dithering about and bring on a modern KLR styled bike with a Versys engine at a made in Thailand price.
Surely if a fellow Canadian can build one himself, your Engineers could do so too. Use the parts bin bits you currently have and build me a modern KLRE 650 like this:

No more cruisers, weenie dirt bikes, sport bikes, bigger Versys, or whatever segment your so called Marketing gurus are telling you; but a big bore, modern, adventure tour style, DP bike IM(LT)HO is what the market needs. Not so difficult to do if you put your mind to it.
How about a GT Rider forum survey to convince them that this is what we want next - or do they even listen?
