Of everything I read on Yamaha's site, nothing alludes to the fact that they're impossible to get. >> This is exactly why I didnt purchase from Yamaha. I was at the Longbeach show Sat also and let one of the reps know what I thought of their pussy way of selling their product. Yamaha has whined and cried that there was not sport touring market for the past 4 years while the other manufacturers have done their homework and developed very good lightweight sport tourers. Some of you know that I have sold my GTS and I looked for a FJR and of course none were available, so I tested and purchased a Aprilia Futura . I also tested and considered the Ducati ST4 and Triumph sprint ST. I considered the Honda VFR also but no bags and the seating is crowded. If Yamaha doesnt get off their ass they will continue to lose potential customers.
