You'll tear your breeches!

[Midnitemo]

I was a little dissapointed with my last BMW it was a fantastic machine and made a great all/rounder / grand tourer but things had slipped in terms of quality control from the previous couple I had bought , there were a number of recall's over the nine years I owned it with the final straw being an approaching failure of the final drive unit at a paltry mileage , sub 30000 miles at a cost to fix by BMW of £1500 + Labour , i didn't take them up on it , i pulled the rear end of and shipped it to a reconditioner for £400 and did it myself , I'm hoping the new one is going to be better put together as the India plant is a new concern and I'm hoping they are giving it there all to make a success of it , i have three years warranty so i'm not overly concerned but i am loving the blend of light weight and fairly nippy performance , as a rider's bike it has the Enfield licked (lighter,faster,more frugal, better braked , more dynamic handling) but i do wonder if the Enfield may outlast it , only time will tell on that one.
