If it doesn't blow any smoke on hard acceleration or decelleration, and if the tranny shifts smooth and doesn't pop in or out of any gears, You are good.

Keep all fluids at proper level and change when needed. Check valve clearances and adjust when needed. These are major maintenace requirments. If you do these things the bike will last you many many miles without any major problems.

All other stuff is minor maintenance and is expected. Get a shop manual or either have extra money aside to be able to pay a mechanic.

Thanks guys! Loving it so far. Very different from my previous harley. So nice to be able to hit the key and it warm up without dying haha

Ive been getting compliments the past 2 days riding it. Thats mostly because of the airbrushed flames
