I went to see Tokyo Motorcycle show. I arrived 90mins before closure and couldn't take all bikes.

Honda new VFR800 was nice.
Triumph Trophy had relaxed position with close handle bar to the body, which was surprise.
KTM adventure had similar position to TDM except handle bar width.
I asked KTM sales man about maintenance. He said KTM need maintenance but it's same with Japanese bikes. I translated his words as KTM needs more maintenance.
Suzuki new DL1000 had small and narrow fairing(not only screen) compared to TDM. TDM has bulky fairing and it makes wind blast soft but its styling ugly. This is difficult.
Suzuki GSR250S had huge screen for 250. (I personally prefer Honda new VTR-F)
Yamaha bolt---my right knee hit air cleaner, my left knee hit engine(there's guard pipe though). I won't buy this (design>function) bike.
Kawasaki didn't have special new model other than new Z series.
I asked Arai sales man if I can use tour cross for on road use, he said no problem. ____________________ 2020 Touring Serow 250
