I'm amazed they haven't tbh, if you go onto the Versys forum the demand
for it is definitely there. I'd say about 60 - 70% of the posters there
would trade their Versys for one if it were available. I dare say a
fair few SV650 owners would swop as well, not to mention the owners of
other machines looking for something like that.

I still like my Tenere but having to have the same fault fixed three
times has left me a bit ****ed off with Yamaha. it's a cracking bike
for the jobs I want it to do and I'm still confident that it'll be ok
now it's had a new wiring loom and reg/rec but the original problem
should never have been there in the first place and once identified
Yamaha should have had the balls to recall the bikes they knew had
problems.

Having said that, I think if it really came down to hard decision time
at the price they're asking for the Super Tenere I wouldn't hesitate,
I'd go for the R1200GS every day of the week, especially now the
Germans reckon all the snags have been sorted.

>Still, compared to the Multistrada at £14300 it's a bargain...


Yet more Italian shite. I suppose I might buy another Ducati one day
but it'd be a sports bike that I only did low mileage on rather than
something like the Multistrada.

I'd like them to build a 1050 Daytona.

Still not sure I'd bother replacing the thou with one though. This is
the first bike I've ever had where I can't find a reason to replace it.
A bit like Bonwick with his 10R. Well, exactly like Bonwick with his 10R
really, except I threw mine at the A1203 and he threw his at a pub car
park.

The ST will not be replaced, apparently. The MS is all you're getting.

Prace bets now! Electrical probs within a year, final drive within two.

Exactly like me and my K8. I keep looking at it and saying "that's my
perfect bike". It'll be staying a while.
