That sounds like a real early number. I assumed mine was an early one, but clearly yours is smaller still. So is it safe to assume the “9’” signifies the year? And the remaining numbers (799), do they identify the all totaled number/built ever, or the 799th built that year? Also, mine appears to have the upgraded muffler, but should I expect to have possible issues with the hub shearing a key? It really is a shame that a product can get so far along as not only being designed, built, tested, put into production, and thriving with practically a mini cult of users, and somehow still not find a way to survive. The way I read even the most current comments, is, many many people even today would love to have one, if only it were still supported with the same customer service that I remember having experienced. It’s a real shame. Honestly, I really look forward to trying mine out. I’m just a lil worried that I’ll love it, and then if I experience a need I’m screwed, just like everyone else.
