It was a genuine model.
Same front as the K1 but with an RS style rear and panniers (as above).
My pops had a black one and sold it to my bro. They both loved it, I hated the way the front end always had the feel that it was tucking under. They were both devestating quick on it though, so I guess I must have been wrong

As yours has the standard foot-peg plates, I'd suggest that unlike both of the blue ones, yours is a genuine "touring" model (quite a few were modified by owners who kept the K1 set-up).

I know you can't go just by colour but every genuine factory K1 touring that i've ever seen has been black.
Classic Schwarz to be precise.
Another way to spot a genuine Touring K1 is that they used the K100/K75 low seat as it lifts off like the "proper" K1 seat as opposed to hinging on the offside. The standard K100/K75 seat wouldn't line up with the tank shroud/knee pad.
