  Why does every new channel with potential add overly-loud background music? We don't need music, it's not a commercial.

  I am 74 years old and have ridden motorcycled since the age of 16. I am what you might call hardcore about always having motorcycles in my life, and I do mean always. Bottom line: best bikes I have ever owned were Yamaha. I've owned everything under the sun, including Honda, Suzuki, Harley, and Triumph. But the best has always been Yamaha. I realize this may sound crazy, but I think the fact that Yamaha began as a musical instrument company (and still is) instilled a drive for perfection in the bikes. Anyhow, never hesitate to buy a Yamaha ... they're still magnificent with a huge dedication to perfection. Yours truly, an ardent life-time Yamaha rider and lover of same.

  Yamaha is an awesome company, be it engines, bikes, audio and musical instruments. As a bass player I own and cherish my 12 Yamaha basses and still think back fondly to my first Yamaha bike that could not let be, always polishing and maintaining with much love. I am a diehard Yamaha client.

  My main bike is a Super Tenere 1200. It&apos;s the perfect balance between globe-trotting power and features and simple maintenance. As a recovering BMW owner having and adventure tourer that is both reliable and easy to care for us refreshing.
