I think some riders are getting board with the large adventure bikes, well I am anyway,
I would have been interested in the ccm but its price tag is to much, until I feel there's a bike that's worth me spending me hard earned cash I'll stick with my trusted 600 Tenere

Triumph had a small bike in mind a while ago; 250cc from memory.
Reporting says that they have dropped that idea, for now at least; why build something like that when you can sell every bike that you can manufacture into markets that will pay a premium price?
RE are doing something similar at present with a bigger engine in their machine but not massive; I can't recall if it is based on their 500 or the earlier 350cc.
That will be cheap and cheerful alongside the offerings from Mash, Honley and WK who are already importing into the UK.
