I have a 1991 st100 which I got a few months ago. I was worried about getting one so old because of the horror 28 amp alternator stories but this one was just so well looked after I didn't want to pass it by. The previous owners had no reported problems and I thought I'd take the risk.
Is it possible for the bike to go throughout its life witout problems or is it almost certain that it will cause problems at some point?
As I'm interested in touring I don't want want to be stranded somewhere without the tools to do it myself and have to get a garage to do it - I know its a big job, engine out etc.
So is it worth doing it proactively?
