Surprised to see Suzuki up there with Honda. Not surprised to see Yamaha at the top spot. Can Am is not looking too good; bad PR since these ratings are 4 years after purchase, so I can imagine they are losing out on brand loyalty.

Ural would probably be so far down on that list that one would need to carry sunshine to them in a bucket.

This isn't the first time this rag has stated something like this. I sometimes think that Consumer Reports should be renamed with the phrase 'Captain Obvious...' embedded somewhere in the title...
