Go back to your origional post and modify to put in rules that state. Oldest with most origional parts, so I can win. And also make it clear that the winner does NOT get a towbar

Re: who has the oldest fzs600 - Fazerider - 05-10-13

I bought this new in Nov 98, so it's not a contender.

Though, if we're allowed to amend the rules, how about years owned multiplied by mileage covered? That'll weed out those who spend more time polishing than riding. :pokefun
Come to think of it, it might win an "oldest still using original battery" contest too. :lol

Ah, well... third actually... but the second was a pup I had to give up with after just 10k so perhaps that doesn't count.
I was sad at junking the first motor, but it needed a rebore, new pistons and the gearbox sorting. It would have taken me ages and cost far more than a replacement... fortunately there are public-spirited folks around who wreck their bikes leaving perfectly good engines going for a song. :lol
Yep, if the prize is ChristoT's tarmac plough, then I don't think anyone will quibble about you winning. :rollin

You got me sussed!!
I to am running on the origional battery
And I only have two non origional parts -Braided front lines and DB screen and I still have the orig screen.the engine bars and hugger (still got orig chain gaurd ) although not origional are not replacements as such (like triggs broom) but are an addition so dont count, I am also not including break pads and oil and tyres as they have been changed. Oh and spark plugs
Still on origional air filter but have a new one ready to fit.
Although I have had it for 12 years my years owned x milage coverd is low as to date its only on 16k -- how about a new one "lowest milage"
