That really makes me happy to hear that Gregor... x
I've been fortunate that of the few bikes I've bought new, I have never bought a duffer - even though not one of them I test rode beforehand!
In fact I've always chosen my bikes because I simply liked the look of them, and I wouldn't have cared if they were crap, because they make me go phwoor (as Jeremy Clarkson might say...)
However, without a doubt, the most impressive has been the Tenere - not that I didn't have high expectations, rather it exceeded them time and again, and I'm sure will continue to do so...
So much so that I find myself staunchly defending any (unwarranted) critisism of the machine - especially over on ADVrider where the few Yanks (God bless 'em) who aren't clamouring for one, are knocking it based on the spec sheet or some half-arsed ride report in a streetbike magazine...
As for your suggestion about Yamaha themselves - hee hee, I guess it would be nice if they were aware of how well the machine has served me... in fact I have an idea I may well propose to them when I get home...
We'll see...
