Pretty much.... less than 10mpg.... needs work!
$2500 don't know if it was worth it cause, some of our fellow mudders have gotten killer deals...
But for me, its good.
Reliability, x2 on previous post.... Sometimes you will need to catch up on the maintenance. $$$$ In my case... (D'animal saw some of the issues/conditions) It needed breaks, a JimC carb, shock tower welded(thank Dynosoar), new vacuum hoses.... And that's about it. She's running fine.... Does not run hot anymore.
I do basic maintenance and little upgrades sparingly. Rear sway bar, front break upgrade, HID retrofit, 62grab bar, pane conversion(still not done).
& planing on; parabolics, rear disc conversion, 5speed tranny, dual battery, and ...... LIST GOES ON....
But mine aint no money pit cuzz... while my maintenance cost is minimal, my upgrades take years...
I'd hate to put $$$ of upgrades and have some part of the drivetrain blow! & I got no cash!
SOOOO..... I love my cruiser!
does not talk smack about the 60 any more...
She still loves the 80 though...
All depends on what your looking to do with it.
