To be honest you get the odd story like this about any bike. The number of 1200GS's that have had blown engines,final drives and electricalat low mileages is.....well...if you read the forums you'd think its every other bike but clearly its not. A friend of mine has GS and hasnt had a single issue.

Similarly another guy I know has a lovely black 1050 from launch and it hasnt missed a beat, but obviously he doesnt make a thread about it as it would be a bit dull!

Edit - Not trying to trivialise the OP at all - if I'd bought a new bike and it turned out to be problematic I'd be pretty furious too, I just mean that every make has its odd lemon or too
