There was a Combat for sale at a swap meet a couple of years ago, good price, think it was around 5K for a cosmetically nice looking bike. I was aware that there are fixes for the Combat but the owner did not know much at all about internal condition or changes made to the motor, nor did I really know what the fixes involve, so I passed on it.
What exactly are the changes needed to make these engines good for longhaul riding, here I mean 400 - 500 mile days sometimes two up with luggage?
Or is it a pipe dream to use the bike in that way?
The change to Superblends seems to be the main change, but what about dropping compression and changing cams?
Anything else?
thanks
Glen
