Yes, it's done 700 miles from new. Its the same as the old one (Y reg). Maybe next year it will finally see some riding.
God knows why I bought it.
It's been sat in the garage for fifteen years... I had some spare money, so I bought it.
So here's the odd bit.
I've changed the battery on it twice and had the carbs off to clean them out twice, and it's on it's second set of spark plugs.
The old one (or rather the worn out one) has never had a problem, battery is original to the bike, I've never taken the carbs off, and the plugs have been in it for 55,000 miles.
Conclusion... they seem to work best when they're being used.
