All sounds fine just keep on top of the servicing and plug swaps and use a good quality 2 stroke I wouldn't worry. Some have been toured 2 up around Scotland with no issues just look after it and all will be fine.
By no. 83 and MK2 most of the issues had been sorted and the bike made reliable but may be worth looking at a modern regulator if you haven't upgraded already for more reliable 12v.
The Silk is no more fragile than any 40 year old Classic exactly as Hendred put it, mostly rumoured by people who have never had one!
