Many curvy owners would disagree with that statement. You have been lucky.
The biggest problem is lack of cooling, there is nothing wrong with the old style RR's, apart from the heat they produce. MOSFET runs cooler, hence the lack of cooling on the SV is less of a problem.
Maybe MOSFETs were invented in 1959, but they have only become common on bikes in recent years to my knowledge, presumably as the costs fell?
I went through 3 standard RR's, then I gave up and went MOSFET.
I have non MOSFET RR's on all my other bikes, none have ever caused a problem, but they are all cooled far better than than SV RR.
