Well the surgeing, exploding final drives, wacko servo braking motors, and QC issues in general (and $15,000 plus price tags) put me off one of those. I thought I could sneak in an F650 and get away with it. I was wrong!

I bought a used one of those (R11GS 1996) with 83k miles on it a few years ago. It was SLOW and top heavy. It cost the PO $5000 in (non warranty) repairs. To think I would have sold my soul for one of them when they came out! Just had to get that outta my system!
