Saying that, you can't miss me at Christmas cause I dress up as Santa for the week and for comic reliefs Red Nose Day this year I dressed up as a tiger, happily raising just over £200!


Go me!

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

There was a bike advertised some time ago in MCN, it was an RT 100 and it was advertised with 980,000 genuine miles...

Wow, 190.000 miles on a high revving 600cc bike!!  Smile


My 02 Fazer just turned 30.000km (18.600 miles), was thinking of getting another bike for this year, but there is no point since it's been serving me perfectly for the last 7000 miles and got it for very cheap. a handy bike for many years to come.

Update on my previous post, just came back from a 2600km (1600 miles) trip Barcelona - Malaga - Barcelona. The bike has now 33.000km (20.000 miles) on the clock, bought it last May with 19.000km (11.800 miles) and have done 14.000km's in 9 months (i was in China for the entire month of January so the bike was just sitting in the street parking). I was thinking of getting a bigger fuel injected bike to replace the Fazer, but after doing 1140 km on it in one day Malaga - Barcelona on highways/b-roads i have changed my mind, for 1800€ paid The fazer is a perfect commuter, everyday workhorse, great fun on mountain roads and really low fuel consumption + maintenance costs (just did a full service on it before the trip and the bill was 80£ all included). I have owned 2 cbr 600 a cbr 900RR Fireblade, cbr 1100 xx and some more bikes, but i have to say the Fazer has proven to be the most versatile bike i have owned and from the newer bikes on the market i just cant find an alternative to replace it except the GSF 1250 S bandit or the FZS 1000 but both are heavy bikes to handle and the Fazer 1000 is carbed too, so i will just keep the Fazer and see how high miles i can rack on it, planing to do a tour this summer of the west coast of Spain and ride through Portugal and back to the east cost where i live.


Here is a nice video of a guy who has done 266.000 miles = 428.00kms' and stil running on the original engine, impressive from a 600cc motor!!

One track day is more sever than 1000 kms of open road riding 90 km/h.  Lots of long trips with less city, or track day riding can make an engine last 10 time more kilometers. So it's all down to the way it was used, how it was serviced. Impressive mileage still.
Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
