I should say, at least my company (geico) considers my 750 a standard. Sorry to hear that's not the case for others. Perhaps a reason to shop around?

I've had my '02 750sie for ~6k miles and it hasn't needed anything more than the basics - oil, tires, new battery, etc. The service intervals are expensive if you pay a dealer (the 12k service,...

I've had good luck with Pittsburgh Cycle Center, just off 51 south of the Liberty Tunnels. That's a pretty long way if you're out near Gatto, though.

It has a clear title, and everything seems to match so a salvage bike doesn't seem likely. I hadn't thought about the odometer being wound back, but that could explain it. I'll take a closer look at...

I'm going to pull the plugs when I go up there to help diagnose the situation. It might be a few days, though. At this point, given the leak at the cylinder base gasket, I think the motor is probably...
