In 5 years, I've had no problems at all, and I do not baby the bike. It has been well into triple digit speeds many times and that is miles per hour, not those sissy little kms.

Being a completely naked twin, it is much easier to work on than 4's and plastic clad sportbikes, which will save you a fortune in service costs.
