Well, after watching this thread for a bit, I have to weigh in, too. I love my '80 Westy, and other than 1 head popping off right after I got it, and operator error (me) on an air filter change, I have had zero problems with it. It starts right up, and while it is definitely pokey, it gets me where I need to go. I just gotta take the GW website with a grain of salt, as I would any other vendor's propaganda.
