After 27 yrs of riding I am a firm believer that when a Cat engine gets to 6000 miles it is ready to let go . Some engines do not even make this. 1990 EXT special - broke crank at connecting rod journal 3500 mi. 1995 ZR580 efi broke crank output end 3200 mi and broke off piston skirt at 6100 mi 1998 ZR 500 both pistons dropped the piston ring non rotator pins $2300 $Can repair 2 new jugs - 6666 mi. The last two repairs I payed all others A/C covered even after warrenty over. I like the performace but hate the repair costs and cost of gas in my area. Tim
