Had 21,000 with no issues. swapped to dyna and freshened the carbs and dropped the oil pan for a look and found nothing to be alarmed with at 20,000.

25215.3 on my '77, I put maybe 10 miles on it, unknown previous history. Top end is great, but H gear in the tranny's gone. Haven't fixed it yet, but picked up a couple spare motors along the way. Been busy with other bikes and boats lately, but plan on getting it done this year.
