As much as I love Yamahas, the dealer support around here SUCKS. I may have problems with my C650GT, but the dealer support is WONDERFUL. That makes all the difference to me.
And at 180,000 miles, my K1200LT has been one of the most reliable VEHICLES (two OR four wheels) that I've ever owned. I wonder how many Harleys are running around with that kind of mileage?
When I was in Las Vegas last week, I was talking to the guy at Eagle Rider/BMW (I rented a K1600GTL to use for the week). He had quite a few C650GT and C600 Sports on the floor. He said when they first came out, everyone at the dealership was excited about them, but the reality has been that they can't GIVE them away. On the other hand, the various GS models sell out early in the year. In New York where I live, the C600 Sport models would sit for a few weeks, but the C650GT models would sell as soon as they hit the floor.
As for Las Vegas, the scooters are still popular amongst the staff as "loaner" vehicles but they haven't figured out how to sell them to the buying public. I guess with all the desert, I can understand the popularity of the GS bikes. "The Strip" isn't all that big, and the other roads aren't nearly as congested.
Actually, they stopped importing TMAXes after the 2011 model year. 2012 is when Yamaha introduced the 530cc version with the belt drive which we never got to see in the States.
The TMax is still here in Canada. You can get a 2013 or 2014.
I guess the rumors that they weren't going to import them after 2013 were false then. Lucky you.
