Yamaha putting their 320cc twin into a WR250ish frame is being discussed. I hope Yamaha are reading the same stuff as me.

could happen...
but KTM has found a niche in the market... more focused bikes...
where the japs look at the bigger picture , wider market appeal...

japs sit on there bikes for years "KLR & DR650"
Yamaha's XT660 range has gone only because they won't meet the
new Euro4 coming in ,in 2017.... why all the new yamaha's in the wind

Aye. When aftermarket demand is high you've got to ask if the factory has missed an opportunity, eh?
