MCN says it'll be £10k... but I don't believe with any certainty any price I read right now.
They're making a big deal of the fuel economy being the selling point, which made me reconsider again whether the DL1000 should be on my list of possible bikes for a year's time. But after doing some sums, I'm not really sure why people make such a big deal about fuel economy... lets say the DL1000 is about 10mpg better than either a Versys 1000 or something like a Caponord. If you're doing 8000 miles a year, it'll save you approx £200/year.
But the Versys will probably be cheaper, especially to begin with, so it'd probably be a few years before you make up the difference in paying extra for the DL1000 in fuel savings. Plus the Versys will probably have better performance. The Caponord will be a bit more expensive, but I suspect not vastly more, and you'd get a much higher spec for your money. Maybe the extra spec/performance of the Caponord would be worth £200 a year (or, £17/month) extra in fuel.
Maybe I'm missing something here... and my first instinct is to be impressed by mpg figures too, but when I work out what it actually means in pounds and pence I start to wonder why it matter too much.
I don't mean to offend anyone here who goes on to buy a DL1000, because bike purchases are all about personal preference at the end of the day... but I personally think that if fuel economy is the only way that the new DL1000 differentiates itself from the opposition, I'll feel a bit underwhelmed by it. Only if it's also cheaper than all the opposition to purchase (including the Versys) will it start to make sense to me.
