Both were restored to a high standard with the best available products and I frequently ride upwards of 200 miles in a day on club outings. I have complete faith in them and neither one has ever let me down in the combined 37 years I've owned and ridden them.
They only ever need the usual maintenance and are not the chore to keep going as many may think. Keeping them on the road and enjoying them is all part of the hobby for me, but as I said, it's not for everyone.
For me, they are the essence of motorcycling from another era and they bring many smiles as I potter along an perhaps 55 mph on rural and coastal roads.
