Still have my 11S. Still in love with it. Don't get to ride as much as I I'd like (rubbish weather, rubbish roads in Sussex). However, going to Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg in early July with two of my biker brothers for 10 days. Looking forward to that obviously.
The bike runs impeccably still. Serviced on time. That's the key isn't it?
Cheers

Morning
I've been and come back. The weather was truly wet, wet, wet. We scaled back going to Holland and Luxembourg sadly due to that. Belgium, however was delightful. Very pretty towards the south in The Ardennes. The roads/riding was great. We rented a 'Gite' in a tiny village about an hour south of Leige, which was beautiful and peaceful. The owner of the Gite is a biker himself it transpires. He intends to advertise it to bikers to rent. It even had a garage for storing our machines.
So yes. Belgium
I'd recommend it. Head away from the north I would say. It's very very busy and traffic is heavy. Head south and expect great roads, scenery, friendly faces, and nice food.
