Glee test report MCN Weds 03/08
« on: August 04, 2016, 20:57:41 »
Just so that any other pedants on here don't bury the MCN editorial staff in emails. The group test in this weeks MCN, with the Glee doing very favourably, did mention the lack of a clock in the instrument pod.
This has been pointed out to them as incorrect and will be amended in due course.
They understood that this sort of error may put off potential owners and damage the chances of VStrom World domination.

coMpenCatioN ???

Poetic spelling rule applies

There was a case on youtube where a bloke didn't buy a strom cos of "missing" clock
When a few of us put him straight he was gutted as he had already bought another bike

Are you listening Suzuki?  :happydance:

As well as my email contact with the journalist involved someone else wrote in and was published in 'letters' of this weeks issue.
Hopefully any one interested in a Glee would have asked the seller/dealer and not been put off by their omission.

I was told by my dealer that there was no temp and that the setting with the circles (the display brightness) was the oil level. WTF! Glad I had already done my homework and knew he was talking nonsense.

The bloke on Spewtube what I mentioned earlier was told by the Suzuki salesman that there was no clock

There is a lesson there  :old:
