Congrats! Glad to hear our bikes can go over 50k without any major issues. Is that a GPS unit next to your speedo?

Cheap old Garmin E-map. I've used that thing for years in my Jeeps, quads and hiking. Plain and simple and best of all, it works....

No problems so far. I'm on my third set of sprockets and chain. The aluminum Vortex didn't last very long...

How many times have you changed the plugs and how did it fair when you had the valve lash checked at 26,000 miles?

Valves were right on at 26-27,000 miles. Plugs were change at about the same time. Time for me to look them this weekend....

FZantasitic! I imagine a compression check would show that your motor is still within specs. I'm glad to hear about 50,000 w/o problems!

What kind of tires are you runnin? What has been the best so far if you have run on different brands, as far as mileage, performance? Glad to see that the plugs can go over 20k without any problems. Thanks for being our test rider for this forum.

Mostly Pirelli Diablos. Aired up to about 40psi and they will last for about 6,000 miles if I'm nice to them.
