Wow, 6850km, three high speed 180+ km/hour (for hours!) runs and abuse around town, maybe im just lucky? not a squeek, not a thud, not even a brake shudder! ZF box amazing, not a problem so far!!! one thing that I noticed (and expected but still annoying to some degree) is that the locking on the hard cover seems to be too close a fit and requires some degree of force, 10min's in the sun, and the locks are very hard to lock more so then open, but its just the plastics and metal expanding :( Otherwise, the only other thing is excessive rear tyre wear , rotated once already but have the feeling the tyres wont last me another 6k tee hee..
