And are you stock or modded. If modded, which ones.

Take care,

173,000 no mods other than K&N and RB pipe and presilencer.

A while back, I was standing with a mechanic next to a GSL-SE he had serviced since new. Original engine, just over 400,000 miles.

And piston people question the durability of Wankles.......
