Hello Wendell, Welcome to the forum glad you joined us.

There is lots of threads about the gts, do a quick search and I am sure you will find what your looking for. I have heard a few frames had problems with cracked frames.

welcome to the forum
I have almost 10,000 miles on my Mustang GTS

I am running a 4stroke which has a lot less vibration tho (possibly the cause of frame cracks)
I also think using a springer helps as the long frame takes all the force when using a solid fork

these are only my opinion and others may not agree

If it is your first build I would recomend a used bike from a garage sale. Beach cruisers and old school 10 speeds tend to be easy engine installs. Micargi builds some beautiful bikes but personally I save it for a second or third build.
