And this is like 100% from different people and shops?
Yeah from what I have read, the early 700R4's were problematic. I have never used one so i wouldn't know, but that's what I've read. Now the TH350 on the other hand is bulletproof if you maintain it and aren't hard on it. Mine has never been serviced as far as I know, and it still works (other than a tad sticky in the cold). Hell, my dad says the only thing holding it together is all the crap in it.
