The miles you've done on it there would be a half decent case for it not being "fit for purpose".

It's your call of course but from my point of view, new crank, new barrels, new, new, new just means it stings more when it eats itself again.

and it is "when" not "if"

Well there would have been a time when I'd have taken exactly that approach. Such is life. I really appreciate this rare bike, so on that basis I'm prepared to spend the cash to properly sort it. The engine is not being tuned and is on factory standard jetting, running on top quality synthetic oil, I'm not expecting to see many more problems in a short space of time. I'll only be racking up 500 miles per year max.
