Price point is important.... having test ride the 450mt. The 550 woukd suit my purposes better. It does need be sub 200k

Why would a 550 be 200kg? My KTM 1290GT is around 200kg and that's 1300cc and 175bhp.
Didn't we used to be concerned about power to weight ratio?
Cheap metal is heavy. Ask the Tour de France guys.

Because for me I want a lighter bike rather than my r1200gs. Your is 209kg, fully fuelled 225kg. 195kg fully fueled is the sweet spot for me having ridden lighter bikes.
