| With only a production of (748) machines it´s a bit difficult to rate. Plus only an enthusiast would have bought one new. Mine was a two year old discounted $9K USD. It has been very reliable for a high performance (Harley Motor´d) bike. The paper head gaskets need to be a planned replacement. Before problems. Cost $30 materials and 3-4 hrs. if you are not afraid and can follow directions. I installed some carbon dress ups, race ECM, and Super Trapp track muffler. K&N filter, Carbon housing etc. Dunlop StreetSmarts give acceptable life. Suspension adjustment to rider´s weight and style are essential. A narrow window there. I enjoy mine very much. It´s easier to work on than a Duc (had one of those too) and provides all the same jollies. Better appreciated by mature riders I think. About same outright performance as a decade old Super Sport 600cc four. But it provides it in a more entertaining package. |
