Yeah, covered right at the start of the thread, what bikes from the past have been adapted with varying success to become more suitable to the purpose. A lot of dualsports that aren't so refined have been pressed to purpose. That's hardly news. It's been done for a long time now. Any clueless wanker can find racks for a lot of them too. And here you didn't even pick one of Honda's earlier ADV-oriented machines that I mentioned in passing a few posts back, like the Transalp or the NX.
You seem real dug in that no suppliers of motorcycles should endeavor to venture in again with BETTER MODERN entries, just let that segment lie fallow. Since the motorcycle industry often is wondering what it can do to make sales inroads, hopefully it won't have the same blindsided approach you seem to take to the subject at hand.
But hey, keep trying. In the meanwhile, here's all the toilet paper mankind ever really needed.
