But who is doing the warranty? When a company leaves the U.S. they usually aren't focused on that warranty department. 5 years is awesome if you have someone at the other end of the line. I have seen a few companies where maybe year 1 you can still get a modicum of support and then the next years it slides down and then I have seen stuff where there is another company involved like in the U.S. with PON holdings when Focus/Impulse left Gazelle took over and that worked out decently well because GZ has great warranty support but Yamaha is independent making their own products.

Hopefully they will support that stuff because from my limited time but several rides on a Yamaha motor, it was nice and yeah if a good deal at your local former dealer hard to beat if the service is real.
