Stupid is, as stupid does.

Didn’t you hear about the ‘12 issues with: compensator, primary chain adjuster, cam bearing, voltage regulator, and other issues?

On a forum like this you only hear from people that want to complain, so trying to draw reliability data is not dependable.

Enjoy your 6 year old previously owned bike, of which you have no idea how it was treated.

Just traded in my 24 yr old girlfriend on a 85 yr old geezer. Nothing wrong with the 24 yr old but I read they could be flaky at times and couldn't cook.
