Just to keep it fair there are some of us who have had trouble with their BAs. Six months after I bought my 06 BA she had to have $2,000.00 worth of warranty work done to her. Then after about a year I had to disassemble the key ignition switch and solder the wires back on. Then shortly after that the speedo cable broke, but that was a minor repair. Almost ruined a good paint job when the front break fluid reservoir starting pouring break fluid out. Other than that, yea its been a good bike. But if I had to do all over again I would have kept the Honda that I traded in on her.
