Granpasso - Should i stay or should i go..?

[soi]

dear all
A SURPRISE!
1 single unit was of Granpasso was recovered from the warehouse of the old distributor.
Contrition New
aged well since 2009
price 9000€
Liquids have been in, for almost a decade, but they intend to provide full service before purchase
CONCERNS
Although i am impressed with the design and the aesthetics of the bike,
i seriously worry about the trouble free running of the engine and the hole bike in the future
I am not aware of the long run quality of this unit, and my experiences have been so far by japan makers (Honda and kawa and Suzu)
MECHANICAL QUALITY
To be more specific, i need to use the 30% on urban commuting and 70% on long distance trips (1 -2 weeks)
Therefore one can be concerned about the trouble free long term smooth running,
about spare parts availability as well as plastic and body parts
SPARE PARTS
No distributor in the country. Is there a solution directly from the factory, are they still operative? Do they provide reasonable cost on their parts?
FUEL CONSUMPTION
Also can you provide any set values of fuel consumption?
SAFETY
What is the status of brakes against modern competition (multistrada, Africa,tracer,) as well as the cornering grips of this frame?

So.. this is exactly where i am standing and i trust that your experience will help me on the next step...
Should i stay or should i go..?
Sincerely thanks

Hi Soi. First of all: Where are you from?
Second: you should first of all present yourself in the correct section of this forum before writing anu other post.
Anyway, untill yesterday I would have suggested you to "stay" (buy the bike) although the price in my opinion is still a little bit high for a ten years old bike, even if it has never been used!
Spare parts, some way and some how have always been available.
The last news say that Moto Morini is now a chinese Company, so I really don't know what will happen in the future...
In these conditions I don't know if I would pay 9k Euros for this bike.
Let us know the end of the story!

Infatti, sarebbe cosa buona e giusta scrivere in lingua Italiana !!!!
