I worked on my bike, not because of problems, I wanted to change it into a cafe racer. There were some stock bits that could be improved as I went along, but the bottom line, in 16,000 miles, mine was very reliable. Unfortunately, it was totaled by an overzealous insurance agent.
Now I'm waiting for Enfield #2 a finished cafe racer.
Hoping that it will be as good as the first one. At least, I know what to expect!
