Who's seen the new Yamaha XSRs? Yamaha have designed them as retro roadsters / modern classics / current day UJMs / "standards" with modern DNA but restrained styling / etc. The 700's based on the MT-07, and the 900 on the MT-09.

I know they're not DS bikes, but I'm curious to hear some thoughts... plus I'm convinced that that 700cc twin in the MT / XSR would make for a great DS bike...
