I agree as well. I've been riding for a very long time and wouldn't go anywhere near an Italian sportbike. Too tempermental and promblematic. The services on them are more, the maintenance on them are more. Everything is just more. That, and I've never cared for the performance VTwin sound, reminds me too much of a long drawn out fart. Lots of guys love the Vtwins, I prefer the "screamer" engines. Though I will say, Yamaha's crossplane(big bang) engine does sound wonderful.
