Hi Frank
The bike is a 1999 model reg' in 2000 and I've had it from new.
There'e no oil leaking from the seals and it's only done 7000 miles.
At the rear I've swapped the spring for a Maxton one for solo use only with a 70kg rider.
Like you say I wouldn't expect the springs to need replacing yet, but was just wondering how other bikes were doing.
