Royal Enfield — Very disappointed rider

Hi i bought a 2009 royal enfield classic efi 500cc last summer, The bike is in top condition and i was happy with the purchase, however after ONE month of riding the srag clutch broke, which at first i did'nt think was a bad thing due to the fact the bike was secondhand. (although it only had 15, 000 on the clock) Since the first sprag replacement i have had to replace the sprag 3 times in the last 4 months!!!?? (WTF)I can't believe this and am so so so unhappy with this bike. This model has NO kick start which i think is a stupid design fault and gives you no option when a problem like this occurs!
I have bought a new battery and made sure i have done everything in my power to ease the starters job.
I live in Alicante Spain and last month i took the bike down to Almeria about 250 miles south through some of the best enfield riding roads in the world. Buy the time i got there the exhaust had split along the welds and the starter was having problems again:(
I have no idea what to do about this bike at the moment and feel let down with Enfield.
These bikes look and sound wonderful but the slogan "built like a gun" Should be changed to "built like a spud gun" me thinks?
Regards from a very disappointed rider!
