Okk Mine is now over 177,000 miles and going strong.
177,xxx miles getting ready to add 4xxx more in the next two weeks.
I'd need a hemorrhoid cushion the size of a front end loader and an osteopath after that.
Good for you!
Ride saft.

2013 F800GT with 49,000. The only issue was a leaking fork seal. Changed the belt, and battery once, the headlight bulb twice. It's a daily bike plus a few long rides. Coast to coast to coast once. I had always expected to move up to an R1200RT, but lately I'm wondering why.
Chris, I love the Kairos work. I've worked Walk to Emmaus, Tres Dias, and Chrysallis many times.
