Mmmm, the weight is disappointing, but I'm guessing the new RTs will be heavier with water cooled engines, but also more powerful so will probably match the trophy.

very much so, perhaps even a big mistake, there should be no need for it with modern materials etc, their GS-alike was the same, lovely but heavy, given that most will not ride off road, no excuse. such a shame when a peach of an engine has to lug around excess baggage.

I have a feeling my K12GT mutters the same under its breath when I ride it :)
