[QUOTE="101stpathfinder, post: 1426677, member: 18625"] This ride started with my ‘08 @125k no valve checks (The ‘08 has had 1 check in 217k) i had new brake pads to begin, but had to replace both front and rear one time each Burned out both headlights Oil changes: lost count... probably 12 Tires: I had 6 rears/ 4 fronts plus tires on the bike and purchased 1 f&r during Longest Month. I can only guess... 7 rear and 5 fronts (?) all maintenance was done by me with the exception of to on the road tire changes and complete front wheel rebuild done in Nebraska. I never had time to figure out the overheating issue with the ‘08, so I purchased a used 121k ‘09 FJR in September. Came with good tires. Replaced tail light, I broke the rear subframe. 3 oil changes. F & R tires I finished out the ride from September to current on that bike. (147k now) Also rode 6k on the new ‘18 with only services by a dealership. I am going to go over mileage as certs come in, and give an OD mileage number for the year too. [/QUOTE]
