You would swear they are the best built, best riding, bestest of all the bestest bikes in world according to their fanboys on their FB page. I subscribe to it and read it when I need a cheap laugh or giggles. Of course if you should mention or hint at some of their many quality issues, you will bring down the wrath of fanboydom upon your head.
Always ask why.
