MACHINE HAS CORRECT AIR FILTER & CHAIN GUARD. AFTERMARKET HORNS ARE FITTED, AND WORK JUST FINE. THIS MOTORCYCLE WAS MY BABY, AND I USE IT ON A DAILY BASIS. I HAVE RIDDEN IT ALL OVER CALIFORNIA WITH FEW PROBLEMS. THE 22K MILES WERE ALL PUT ON IT BY ME. THE MACHINE WAS NOT ABUSED, AND HAS HAD THE OIL AND FILTER CHANGED REGULARLY. THE ENGINE LEAKS A LITTLE OIL VIA THE PRIMARY CHAIN CASE. IT DOES NOT LEAK FROM THE CYLINDER JOINTS, OR THE CYLINDER HEAD. IT STARTS VERY EASILY, AND MAKES PLENTY OF POWER. I HATE TO SEE IT GO. IT IS NOT SOME MADE OVER JUNK HEAP. THIS MOTORCYCLE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED FOR THE ASKING PRICE. 6-27-10. TOP END OVERHAUL @ 17600 MILES, APRIL 2009.
