Hi HIQ... I was able to put less than 3k miles on her the first year and a half before everything went completely to $=i+ there were ongoing problems during that time, especially the crappy Demon 850 carb and the TO bearing/tranny (builder errors) and the oh-so-scary fuel tank.

Then last summer I put about 650 miles on her after the rebuild-dyno.. then parked her when fall came..seemed to be running fine except for that horrible carb. Last year I also fixed a bunch of peripheral problems on my "turnkey"

Hopefully the coming years will be completely different !
