Hasn't missed a beat. I've put just over 2000kms on it, which includes a few trackdays and Deals Gap.
I did have to buy a new starter, but I knew that before I even assembled the bike. The stock ones burn out quickly trying to start poorly set up motors, and mine has not lived an easy life. Rather than buying an OE one, I went with a beefier rebuilt unit from Rick's. It's about $50 more than the original but comes with a warranty, thicker windings, etc.
