Just for a bit of fun post your current mileage and engine work done

just turned 64k and no engine work done whatsoever (98 zx6r)

think I can win this but controllers machine might pip me

That's pretty damn impressive for a 16 year old 600 & testament to how well the Japanese build there bikes. Same with the CBR 6's, The track day bikes at Donny used to get taken apart at the end of the season but they were still so good inside they stopped doing it. :cool:

Craig321 · 4 Oct 2015 at 12:48

Go for 100k

. Met a guy the other day with 190k on his old Shadow

wazza300 · 4 Oct 2015 at 12:50

yeah id love to,only seen one other zx6r so far with 70k miles on it,gotta beat that

not bad for only one major engine service at 18k

Craig321 · 4 Oct 2015 at 12:50

Do you normally do that many miles? That's more than 1k a month.

wazza300 · 4 Oct 2015 at 12:51

yeah,i only walk if its snow or bad ice ect,just too risky then

EDIT: I only tell my insurer I do 2k a year lmao

Craig321 · 4 Oct 2015 at 12:52

Nice. You'll easily beat 70 then

wazza300 · 4 Oct 2015 at 12:52

I sold my 12 with 51 thousand and was a nightmare to shift due to peoples outlook on bike mileage.

When I started out we was happy if the bike run

wazza300 · 4 Oct 2015 at 17:38

it wouldn't put me off,ideally you always want the lowest mileage bike you can get,but all depends on the price I suppose

aslong as you change the oil annually and theres no smoke or abnormal noises its fine

Ducati 1098s. Engine mapped, full Termi system that has been Camcoated.
Only engine work other than mapping is the usual services and belts. Did a round trip to the San Marino Moto GP last year.

Will get the pic up in a bit.

wazza300 · 6 Oct 2015 at 20:24

ceramic coated?

Not this one no, it was a replacement for one that was stolen 2 years ago. This one had 3500 miles on it when i bought it. Pic in a bit, having grief with tinypic at the moment. Pic up now, 21,822 miles. No, not ceramic coated. It called Camcoat and it's baked coating inside and outside the exhaust. Improves the gas flow and dissipates the heat away from the exhaust faster.

Ish · 7 Oct 2015 at 08:46

23k.

No engine work and valve clearances were all within tolerance when checked a few months ago.
