Maybe a little of both, luck-wise, eh? I've never run into it, though I've only bought 4 older bikes in my 20 or so years of riding -650 Maxim, KZ550 Spectre, CB650C, and this current basket case. All the other ones were new and well taken care of. Actually, with the exception of the current project all the other ones had been fairly well kept.

Gona search around and see what else I can find that supports this info.

I actually found quite a bit to support the copper contamination theory. I don't believe everything I read on the internet, so I try to do a little research before I post. I don't like to look stoooopid either. hahrarharharhar
