You mean, like the last bike I bought that still had a warranty on it, which
I sold because I was getting fed up with the repairs?

I don't recall that. Was it actually a brand new bike, or just new to
you?

BMW GS Adventure, bought slightly less than a year old with 10k on the clock,
still under BMW warranty and with full service history etc blah blah. Sold it
last year when it was just out of warranty after having to visit the BMW
dealership in Chur three times within two weeks for various issues. And yes,
I pointed out all the issues that I had had fixed to the person who bought it
off me instead of just saying "BMW says it's OK" like some other people.
Reportedly he's very happy with the bike...

Part of the problem seems to be the mileage I do as I seem to be doing the
national average mileage in a little more of a month, and the fact that due
to various ailments and ergonomics issues, there are only a handful of bikes
which I can ride for that kind of distance, and most of them don't seem to be
very happy doing that kind of mileage, either.
