The Versys 300 is looking to MSRP for 5399/5699 without or with abs, more with some of the options. If it's like the Ninja 300 it'll be found for less than that after the initial rush. ( Romney has them 750 under msrp with a 75 dollar doc fee, 4250) The Vstrom will have to be less if it's going to sell at all compared to the V300. BMW G 310 is priced 4750 with abs. I'd expect the GS version to be 500 more or so.

Who knows what the 390 will be priced at, the duke is about 5000. The spy photos of it just turned up so it's likely a year or two away.

I'm personally very closely looking at replacing my RX with the V300. I could use just a bit more power to use the highways when needed. My long trip (4000 miles) this spring had some windy sections which really cut the RXs speed way down to 52mph in 4th on flat ground.

My RX also has some top end noise that isn't valve clearance and it's very hard to get started compared to when new. I won't have time to work on it until next spring unfortunately. This kinda wrecked my trust in the bike over the summer and I barely rode it using my Stelvio instead.
