This was forwarded to me from a contact on the LD riders list.
Somewhat dated (last fall), but always fun to speculate.
click on the link and go down to the Yamaha section.

Now I know why the Yamaha rep at the Daytona Booth said the new
touring bike was going to be heavy. It didn't figure a touring
version of the R1 would be heavy. The R1 engine in a lightened up
GTS sounds interesting......... you heard it hear first:>)

"Yamaha - There's a vicious rumour going around
that Yamaha might re-launch their floppy
GTS1000. Remember the GTS? Bit of a radical
bike with it's Omega frame and hub centre steered
front end. Unfortunately, the technology came at
too high a price and no-one bought it. Another
case of a good idea gone bad. Anyway, they might
(and I think they should, if they can get the price
right) reintroduce it. That's all I know."
