Are the older bikes more reliable and better made than the newer bikes. As my 2011 sherco seems to be always letting me down when compared to my previous bikes montesa 315r and sherco 2004 200 (which had piston slap). For example I never really greased the suspension on them and they seemed to last longer. On my current bike i seem to be spending more time working on it than i do riding it. It just seems to be one thing after another.
