Make sure your idle speed, clutch and chain adjustments are spot-on and there's some good quality motorcycle oil in the sump.

I meant the fact that if you blow at the shift pedal it will bend the gear shift axle so you can buy a 131€ part

I think the biggest drawback is all the attention you get, all the comments like, "Wow, I didn't know they still made those, that looks so cool/awesome/etc. Really delays you getting out of the gas station sometimes.

Availability of spare parts in a timely manor.
