Have had the Baker since 2012 with a problem. Looked at it a couple of times and needed nothing.

I have the Hayden on two bikes, one for 23 years and one for 12 years no problems with either other than occasional shimming due to chain stretching

Dammit. I got sucked in again on a 11 year old thread. Must be a winter thing.

According to your numbers. That's 360,000 miles. Do you ever stop riding?

That's over the last 24 years..

But it doesn't include 8000 on a CB750. 44000 on a CMC rocket88 or 50000 in a special construction EVO.. The truck I have for the same period only has 65000.
