That was the sort of price difference I was thinking about...20-50%. It's probably not feasible to look to getting absolutely superb mechanics and engineering, unless you were prepared to pay the premium that you'd expect for such quality. However, it would be good to see the manufacturers up their ante a bit and make something a bit more usable out of the box, so to speak. Most people wouldn't expect to have to tweak the mirrors, modify or fix the rocker box, or replace parts that weren't quite good enough...straight out of the box. That's why a lot of people become disappointed in the equipment they've bought, especially those only new to the hobby.
