i can't say i agree.

when i went to buy a triumph, i had to convince myself that the
several stories of munched engines i'd heard were teething problems,
and that i wouldn't need to worry about such a thing.  and that the
fuel sender recall would finally be over by the time i bought.  and
that the "i need to reboot my ECU" issues would be as minor as they
sounded.  people i talked to told me i should worry about reliability --
and these were people that had no reason to distrust -- no axe to
grind.

i've not heard of any such problems with a recent japanese bike.  i take
that back.  i suppose maybe i have, from some models.  but not often.

hmmm.  come to think of it, i'll be riding my suzuki tomorrow, instead
of my RS, whose clutch cable is broken, at 2500 miles.
