I had one on my CSS for many yrs. 2 yrs ago the gasket between the adaptor and the engine got old / brittle and was leaking oil. L&N sells a replacement gasket. But this was after 5-6 yrs of usage. Not a big deal.

You should defn consider a spin-on if you're going to do any track days. Any "agricultural driving" could result in a cracked / broken OEM canister.
