I have had the carbs cleaned. Oil changed every 2,500 miles, and just basic regular maintenance provided for the upkeep to give it optimum performance.
This motorcycle is smooth, quick, and an excellent bike for cruising. Reliability of it is amazing. Starts in extreme cold weather after sitting for two week intervals. Top of the line in looks.
They are all of that and more.
My '82 Maxim 600 is a wonderful bike as well. I will keep it until I'm too old to ride!
