Given clean oil every 800-1000 miles (max) A superb little engine.one new cam chain fitted at 10000 miles as a precaution. early problems with rear wheel bearings and water in rear light.first time starter (as I was a shift worker) she was often covered in snow.90% used on road for commuting. front mudguard was improved by the fitting of a car inner tube. Light bags could be carried on the rear carrier rack.The steering then became a bit light. The orignal exhaust fell to bits at 25000 miles.Honda price £100+ Sammy Miller price£18.00 (and it fitted) |
