TBF though some of the above can be similarly applied to any lifestyle product, Apple and VWs come to mind.
In fairness, it's not the worst bike I've ever ridden and I can see why people like them, but there's not a cat in hells chance I'd have one as an only bike, it's so bloody ironic that the bits that are supposed to improve reliability are the bits that have fucked up.

I still can't get over why the boy bought the damn thing, he was supposed to be getting a VFR800, he originally wanted a GSXR1000 but come home with something that his GPz would leave for dead on any road.

Magnet on a string to drag behind it and catch the bits that fall off.
