Re: Fallen out of love with the V-Strom.
They have 7500 mile service intervals now (which is oil change service) and the Desmo service (valve train) is minimum 15000 miles (30000 miles on some). The reliability has come on in leaps and bounds since Audi took over .

Fallen out of love with the V-Strom.
I said potential. Despite what Ducati say, I still hear of broken down Ducati's with various electrical faults. I can't deal with it and will worry permanently.

Fair enough. There is a "faired" MT-09 coming soon

Unfortunately, sexy costs and if you're on a budget then compromise is needed. Many people who ride the MT-09 buy one. Personally I much prefer the Triumph Street but having met Matt, it would be too small for him. |
