It has never been apart and it's still running strong. It's hard to complain about that!

RE: Year and Mileage
Just got home from my favorite indy shop. Had the 96 WG serviced and checked over good. It wasn't running the best all of a sudden.
It turned out to be an intake gasket leak - no biggie but I had a tuneup done too.
At almost 21,000 miles it's as fit as can be. Runs like new again. It's stage 1, original CV carb jetted and tuned.
It has a quick-release windshield and saddlebags.
We'll probably keep it forever. My wife just got her endorsement and took a second intermediate rider safety course on my Deuce. She's riding this WG now "because it's red," lol.

I am the second owner of my 1985 FXEF, sold new at a UK dealership in February that year.
Bought it with 15,000 on the clock in early 1992.
Now has 87,000 miles up.

1992 sport here, 20,500 miles on her. had to replace the rocker cover gaskets at 19,000 due to a minor leak ( still had the original paper gaskets)
No other problems at all and only normal maintenance performed per Mfg recomendations. I run amsoil 20W-50 and doesnt burn nor leak a bit. I find her to be a most reliable ride.
