No surprises here as mine has run flawlessly for 5 years.
On one set of plugs in 31,000 miles, no visits to the dealer for any problems, recalls, or anything.
Can you say that about any thing you bought latley.
I think not.

Big AL,
My Valkyries,...a 98 and a 2K I/S.
They are not new, but my wifes GL1100 only needed tires, plugs, oil, timing belts, coolant change, and filters. But this year we put in a thermostat, water pump, and temp sensor. She has 166K miles on an 1982 motorcycle. Hows that for realibility?

ST1300 2005 - 87,000 miles
Tahoe 1997 - 157,000 miles. New radiator, alternator, fuel pump. Pretty good for the mileage and it lives outside.

95 Chevy Cheyenne 1500 - 183,000, one starter, four batteries, four sets of tires/brakes and 61 oil changes. Not bad for a $15,000 truck in 1994.
