But I own an Aprilia so therefore it's the best!
I agree with you. There are fantastic bikes available from many manufacturers. Just like there are fantastic audio components available from many manufacturers. There's no universal "best."
Primaluna?
I’m thinking about giving a full tube setup a go and Primaluna in particular. Looking to hear people’s experiences with Primaluna in general. My main draw to them outside of tubes is there auto bias and protective features. Wondering if people generally replace a single bad tube or if people are replacing all tubes of that type when there’s a failure. Also would be interested if there were any other companies with at least a similar protective feature. The auto bias sounds great but the protective features are a bigger deal to me.
