Sport-tourers — fairing and luggage on a sportbike chassis. Real-world fast bikes that can also do 600 miles in a day.
スポーツツアラーは絶滅危惧種のジャンルだ。かつては「実用的バイク」を支配していた——Honda VFR800、Yamaha FJR1300、Kawasaki Concours 14——快適側からはアドベンチャーツアラーに、速度側からはスーパースポーツに挟撃され、中間層は痩せ細った。
残ったものは概ね傑出している。BMW R1250RS、Suzuki GSX-S1000GT、Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX、Yamaha Tracer 9 GT——シャープなダイナミクスと、まともな積載量と、防風防雨を、納得のいく価格で両立する。他のジャンルには真似のできない仕事である。
