749R , 4500 miles since April 1st , no problems at all :D

My 999's nearly 2 years old,6k+ miles,only problem so far was a weak battery,replaced under warranty.
There have been a couple of little niggles,but nothing to spoil the enjoyment of a great bike.

749 monoposto, 6 months 'old', 5k miles and so far one minor oil leak and occasionally the engine stops running (@ low rpm)..

999s

18 months old and-
two new batteries
7 new ti end cans
one new rear sub frame
two new tacho assy
three new spark plug-coils
three sets of spark plugs on,e plug was missing the electrode
and 5 different wiring problems concluding with a short curcuit behind the battery box blowing the 20amp fuse
