Is this the end? Really?

 I just came across this official Yamaha video showing 3 color variations of the SR400 FINAL EDITION.

Now, I know the end has been called a few times already: in 1999 when the last SR500 units were sold in Europe, in 2008 when emission regulations seemed to have killed it definitely (but came back in 2010 as the SR400FI), in 2019 with the beautiful special final edition that had that gorgeous burnt brown tank design and the golden rims. 



So, is 2021 really the last year for one of the bike with the longest production run? Has EURO5 been the last nail in the SR coffin? Of course, I hope not, but I have a bad feeling about this one.
