Seeing that yamaha likes to install dunlops, it sounds plausible. I did notice the rider and his wife were impressed with the not so nice handling and comfort of the morph. Much kinder words for the handling and comfort of the aprilla.
On the Aprilia, Christie found a passenger seat she could really love. To paraphrase Taoist philosopher Chung Tze, "When the seat fits, the butt is forgotten." With significantly more ground clearance than the Yamaha, we could concentrate more on enjoying the ride and less on trying not to drag hard parts.

Nothing ELSE!!!!! They replaced one Morph with another so it took two to make the trip. Plus I wouldn't call the evaluation of it flattering. No ground clearance, "A cross between a chopper and a Jet ski" and out of its element on anything but flat, straight roads. I can get that kind of performance for thousands less and lest you forget Jack made a similar trip to Texas on a single Roketa 250B. Bad example Luke.

They could have replaced the tire and made it on one morph except on one of them it is such a pain in the arse to tear all that crap plastic off so you can get to changing the tire!

you have to be thankful cyborg, .you guys are blinded and brainwashed by chinese voodoos, and i am saving your souls, but come to think of it, your lives are more exciting, you know why? because here i am,having a 250cc scooter, made in japan, manufactured in 2005, released in 2006, racked up 28K on the odo and 9 years later, still no mechanical issue, ahh life is so boring, no cleaning of carburetor, no valve adjustment whatever,no malfunctioning tranny that needs to be returned,no failing turn signals., all i needed to replace were tires , brake pads and cvt belt, now KZ always claims that i replaced the Clutch pad and cvt assembly because it was malfunctioning, nope, you're wrong kz...i regreased the cvt bearing and the primary sheave bearings but not replaced them... then he also thought that the fuel pump is bad in morphous and yamaha apparently had a recall on all 2006 morphouse's, wrong again, yes there was a recall but it was all about the fuel pump coupler..nothing serious, a 99cent siliconized rubber gasket can remedy the issue. yamaha is just over-worrying about it.. then, JCT hates yamaha only because he owns a Majesty that has tons of mechanical problems,but they were all caused by owner's neglegence, and worst of all,he even blame the previous owner , he blames everybody but him...LOL and then ,here is a guy named cyborg, who said he is the mesiah of modifying motorcycles, and he brags about spending nearly $140K in modifying motorcycles, he even sent one to France(?) to sell?, but worst of all, the buyer called him back, saying the motorcycle is not running. scam!
more revelations to come...

Yes, that's right Luke, you own the very best personal watercraft on the road. Do I have to show you the recall for leaking fuel pumps-again? Nah. I've done it enough, you can ignore it. Just make sure you have Comp and Collision to cover the burn damage. I always know when I'm getting to someone when their replies get long and rambling. It's a psychological thing. Don't you own a spare Morph too. Does Yamaha sell them that way? By pairs. Here. A better review www.motorcycle.com/manufacturer/2008-qlink-commuter-250-review-86743.html

lets face the facts Kz,,Luke wins this argument,,, we're farting against thunder on this one,,,the morphous is so superior in every way ,,, there's no work to keep it going,,, it's turn the key and go,,,what else would you want?,,,it's the perfect machine,,,,Damn the reveiws and the recalls,,,Lukes got it covered baby,,,he beat the odds he got what they call in the industry "a sweet one",,,it was put together just right,,,,nothing to do but ride it and enjoy it's splendor,,,it's so full of wonder,,, it is a wonder why Luke is even here wasting his time on a scooter board when he has no issues to deal with,,,makes me wonder anyways,,,,Oh! it just occured to me he's here to enlighten us simpletons on the error of our ways,,after all he is the king
