Among the things he mentioned were low top speed, fasteners falling off, and fork action.

The bike was bought used, and it's quite possible that it was one of the early "assemble it yourself" units. If the original owner failed to follow the CSC blog about tightening certain bolts, that would surely explain the muffler coming loose.

Fork action also applies. If the assembler left the factory oil in, mushy action.

Low top speed? Everyone say it together "Check valve clearance."
