FJR Mileage Milestones

[dcarver]

List updated today. Keep em coming.

 

 

Still lonely in the 200k list. Isn't anybody going to put their big-boy pants on and step up?

 

Ok, Skootie,I need a rule clarification..

 

Does the 200k require OEM as-bought OEM gear all the way?

I now have a transplanted engine in kRzY8,so,to me, I'm out of the running.

At least that's my opinion..

 

Maybe an asterisk in the listing to denote the bike ain't the OEM factory stuff or sumthing?

Shhhhhhhhhh...what ol' Big Ears don't know, won't hurt YOU!

Do club members get to vote?

New engine old bike, is okay with me. Go by the odometer not engine. You are just keeping it going.

And what is this kRzY8?

I know that my opinion doesn't count for much in the high mileage club (I'm still at a paltry 65k miles) :blush: but I think that any bike that is still running and racking up miles should count. Sure you could put an asterisk next to any that have had an engine transplant, but the bike is still a functional bike and it's worth noting that you can ride one of these things as far as you can.

I didn't realize a paltry 54,000 miles on my '06 AE counted! Add me to the list please :yahoo:

Hey Guys,

Douggie gets the Bozo Button for reading comprehension!!!

Ya know, I know of another 04 FJR rider out there who has joined me in the Cool Kids Klub (200k), but for some reason won't post up. I guess he doesn't like me and wants to keep me lonely!

He posts all the time on Sport-Touring.net and has it listed in his signature there.

I think he just isn't into the fjr forum anymore...

mxvet - I know I've seen him on here before. Guess he's more of a casual visitor.

I need to ride more...all I do these days is commute (though I did rack up 1000 miles over New Years...). My 08 is sitting just shy of 34K or so (I think) and the ST just rolled over 2K today, and I've had it since August! Of course, last year, I did about 60K riding an airline seat...

 

[dcarver]

Well now! :yahoo:

 

If transplanted engines *do* count then I'm off to reach the magical 200k mark. From a previous post,

UPDATE - Doing the math, I need 90,470 on this odo for 150k.

However, being the AR I R, the peeps that make 200k with original, OEM supplied engine and frame are the true heroes.

The rest (like me, lowly Candy Butt Association peeps) are mere posers.

 

IMHO, of course - and that's why my new goal is 1 million miles on bikes I currently own.

Now that would be worth CBA bragging rights!

:****:

Hugs n' Kisses

Do rebuilt KZ1300 motors count????

 

[dcarver]

Yes!

 

[mtnhigh]

3 miles shy of 50k now on my 08. Slacked off last year. I promise to do better this year.

Congrats on the elite 160K. !

 

[SkooterG]

Slacker! If you don't be careful, I am going to catch you on my 2nd FJR!

:jester:

Congrats on the new milestone my friend - and hero! :wub:

 

[karstenp]

I am pretty sure you put 80% of those miles during last years IBR riding "circles" around me...and everyone else!

 

[Behmer]

Am I still a "Slacker" if I saw this on bike #1 today?

 

[SkooterG]

Yes! You are still a slacker. You just happen to be an IBR winning slacker.

I mean for crying out loud! The bike is 12 years old! That's *only* 14,800 miles per year average. Slacker, slacker, slacker!

And I don't want to hear any whining about how you've also been riding the FJR, or that Minnesnowta has a limited riding season. Geeze! Kids these days!

But you're still my hero. :wub:
