I'm still shopping for my next bike purchase, and I'm trying to look at anything that has a comfortable riding position for the street (no supersports). This could include streetbikes (FZ-09, Monster), bigger displacement supermotos, etc. It seems like all of the sports-touring bikes that used to exist have disappeared from manufacturer lineups. I'm talking Triumph Sprint (seems to have been replaced by the Tiger), Ducati ST (replaced by Multistrada?), Aprilia Futura (replaced by Caponord?), etc. Honda still makes the Interceptor, but if you're in the market for a sports touring bike all that's left are the FJR and Concours sized bikes, which are just too big for me - I prefer something relatively nimble that isn't stressful to split lanes on. Have adventure bikes taken over this segment?
