There are way way more common problems than the one you have mentioned. For example ignition barrel problems, it locks totally or as on my bike you can remove the key when ignition is on. Tacometer needle goes off, water/moisture in speedometer, final drive nut disengages just to mention a few. And what about an idiotic high gearing it has? What about only a 520 chain/sprocket set up on such a heavy lean set up single thumper? Even the Dr650 has a 525 set ip. What a windscreen that creates insanly much turbulence for an average tall rider?
No you obviously havent owned such a bike Mr Eskildsen - its shows very clearly!

Some of the fixes on the Ten might be easy and cheap, but for example the rear hubb one is neither easy or cheap at all! If you cant machine one yourself it will be very costly. And taking a new bike and start to fill innertube rubber in the rear hubb - nah that is - excuse me - not how a bike should come out of a factory. And the same goes for both of the socalled Kev mods. There are both an O2 mod and a fuel mod - didnt you know that? And you will need a wuite expensive aftermarket airfilter and ditto exhaust to get a decent result out of this. Cheap you said? LOL

And to compare fuel pump issues or headgaskets on a twostroker with the gearbox issues on the Ten is excuse pure nonsense. Both can be fixed in less than an hour for a small cost. The gearbox issues on the Ten can cost shipping home to Europe from Mongolia and then find a replacement engine. Cheap and easy my ass!!!

2000 bikes isnt a lot you say? It would be interesting to know how many bikes you consider a lot? 100 000? 999999999999? Imo a single bike with a potential failure is too much. Other brands makes recalls and take responibility - Yamaha gives a god damned shit about their bikes and customers....
