FJR Mileage Milestones

[SkooterG]

Please update me on the list:

About time you slacker! Congrats my friend - even if too many of those miles are on freaking car tires.

I finally made 50K on my 2003,

Thanks to this forum for all the help!

Maybe I'll actually get to go to WFO this year and get drunk with my FJR brothers!

We're good with the getting drunk part. You're buying, right? All that money you didn't spend on gas will pay for the drinks!

Gonna have to have SkooterG upgrade me to the next level in a few days. I'll pass 150k on my way home from OK on Monday.

I figured out the fuel economy on the bike vs. the cost of tires every 10K made it a wash over taking the econobox, but I'd miss the power to weight ratio.

Yeah, I'll budget to buy drinks for the true fanatics!

Ok SkooterG, add me to the 150k list. here's the photo I took today on the way home from Pagosa Springs, CO. Now sitting at over 150,200 in the garage.

Congrats Eric!

And I must say, your bike is most certainly hetersexual!

Thanks Greg. Nothing says heterosexual like riding through snow, sleet, hail, rain and horizontal winds of blowing dust and debris. It makes the bike run better, I tell 'ya. :lol: My bike was gay once, the day I picked it up. That only lasted about 20 miles or so and it's never been gay since.

I thought someone had posted a picture of my FJR's dash until I saw 221miles on the trip odo and there was still over half a tank of gas. My gauge would have been flashing for a while by that mileage.

It's a crime, that ethanol crap. I filled up in P.S. and got non-ethanol gas. That fill took me 485 miles before reserve, and would have gone farther if I hadn't had 3 gallons of E-10 already in the tank when I filled. I rode from Pagosa Springs, CO to Ivins, UT on one fuel fill. I like having 11.5 gallons on hand! B) Even on the stock tank I regularly saw 270-300 miles from a tank before we got stuck with the E-10 blend.

Ahh, the blind man suddenly sees...

About time! Glad you're getting out and riding some Ray. Have a great time in CA before heading back to the snow banks in LaPine.

Last weekend I went on a 3 day 5 state ride and now have over 35,000 on my 08.

Well, it's not much around here but I see you listing 50,000+ so add me to that list (2004). I'll let you all know when I hit 75,000.

Way to go Ray! I'm not too far behind you. This was last weekend on the way out after visting Wynoochee dam for the Dam Tour.

I was so close yesterday that I had to take the really long way home to ensure I passed a new milestone for my FJR. So with Metallica Seek and Destroy rockin' in my helmet and only 2 miles from home, I pulled over to take this photo:

And I'm still lovin' my FJR just like the day I picked it up! :yahoo:

Hi FJR Dudes,

I make the 100,000 mile club on June 9, 2011. My 06A is still running great and I never have to add oil between my 5000 mile milage intervals.

Ride safe,

 

[MartyO]

Scooter,

Thought I better add some proof.

Have fun,

Hit 75,000 miles this morning. Just barely broken in.
