runner Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I have had 2 birds with miles approaching 50k. They both seem they could go that far again (to approach 100k). Who has reached 75,000 or more miles? Any maintenance issues to watch out for? (Other than basic valve adj, oil chg, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB4XX Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Good thing you only stopped at 50k on your birds, you almost broke them in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banshee Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I had ~185,000km on my '98 when it was killed by cheesecutter. Currently have 62,000km on my '07. No problems other than the usual on the '98 (CCT, RR, stator). None so far on the '07. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X1rider Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 60700. Just had my first valve adjustment. 2 exhaust valves on number 1 were 1/2 thousandth tight. All the rest were in spec. After my 3208 mile trip to Canada and back, the motor finally loosened up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
