I'd love to see an updated XR650L. It could really use a little freshening. Maybe offer a dual sport and a sumo version?

I like it- good looking setup. Where did you get the fairing? Is it an aftermarket, or is it off another bike? Whatever it is, it looks right at home on the GS.

Definitely go with 2 bikes (personally, I'd go with the Griso/Valk, But I've always liked the Valk.) Two very different/contrasting bikes in the barn trumps one bike any day!
