Well , I have not enough time to spend in the saddle of my 2011 G5 . BUt at over 14,000 miles have had very few issues. Did have a problem keeping oil in as it would blow into the airfilter box and then spill all over the rear tyre (not very safe) which I rectified with some repiping and a couple of strategically placed filters. Sprockets, after changing up to 18 teeth front (sourced for the UK and UK made) and a standard rear straight from an Indian parts supplier (which looked like the braking surface might cause issues but actually greatly improved the rear brake) Have been no problem . Only two things ever stopped the bike . The kickstand cut-off switch (now dis-connected) and the HT (spark-plug) cap failed. With no cat converter (Indian short bottle silencer) and a K&N filter it is as quick as needed to keep with freeway traffic round the SF bay (65 to 75mph in the early morning) and does everything I ask of it. Comparing it to the bikes I had in the , 60s, 70s and 80s (with the sole exception of a 1978 Ducati 900GTES) it has been very reliable so far.
