My (our) 2 2005 Americas are still in one piece. I'm learning that they are quite expensive to keep up. Kimmy's needs a battery and oil change, (over $100), and mine needs a new chain I guess, as it flops wildly when on the jack and in gear...Just changed oil in mine yesterday...$57...but well worth it. And my '72 Bonny is still awaiting a top end gasket set, and to have the amals sent out to be re-sleeved, another couple of hundred..Guess ya gotta pay to play...
