Normal wear and tear + the Cam chain tensioner failed @ about 50k and I had the front Rotors warp on me around 40k.
Nothing else but miles of smiles on this bike

I'll be around those #'s in a bit as long as I don't tangle up with a fuckin' cager .
One backed over my bike at a gas station last year july.

But yeah highways and canyons. One year I think was 07 I had logged over 10k in just canyon riding alone.
Ahhh the memories

A lot of noise that came and went whenever the motor came back down from WOT.
And every so often at startup it would rattle forever.

Could have been worst iif i let it go but the noise from the cct was more than enough to get me to fix it asap!

was thinking about what 90 K is today and you rode the CRAP out of that bike. How many tires did you go through?

Yeah I do deserve a new bike hahahaha!
Yes I am married and since about 50k . She's been on the back for 10's of thousands .
According to my records that I have from 29,000 miles cause I can't seem to find my other one that I have from the 600 to 20k , here's the breakdown:

2 chains 1st one @ 33K 2nd one @ 71K
17 sets of tires.
10 oil changes.
4 spark plug changes
So that all happened since 29k so a few more of the above happened before that too lol.
