I AGREE AND I OWNED ONE IN 75 AND AGAIN IN 82. PUT A DYANA 3 ELECTRONIC IGNITION IN PLACE OF POINTS. MORE RELIABLE. REPLACED STOCK COILS WITH BLUE GOOSE HOT COILS.PLACED TAPERED ROLLER BEARINGS IN FRONT FORKS FOR GREATER STABILITY.ALSO, TEFLON SWING ARM BUSHINGS WERE IN STALLED.ALSO, INSTALLED A GOOD O-RING CHAIN.AND COMPLETEDA MILD BORE TO 1015CC.GAVE IT AN UPDATE FOR THE TIME YOU MIGHT SAY. NEVER HAD ANY MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE BIKE. HOWEVER, IF IT STALLS AT IDLE OR WHILE RUNNING AND YOU CANOT TRACE THE PROBLEM .CHECK THE KILL SWITCH WIRE WHERE IT BECOMES A PLUG UNDERNEATH THE GAS TANK. GET RID OF THE PLUG AND WIRE IT DIRECT. GOOD LUCK WITH YOURZZZZZZ. P.S. GOT MINE UP TO 150MPH WITH TWO PEOPLE ON BOARD AND STILL HAD MORE TO GO.....
