bike has just been to dealer for 42000 service .. actually a bit late at 42700 ..

only issue a split boot on the sliding pin on the rear caliper. rear BT023 down to wear bars at over 10000 miles .. excellent tyres with good grip and durability due to split compound.

so far so good with the bike after 2 years since new .. only one failure on the road just the other week when a 10 amp fuse blew .. not sure which one. First thing that day indicators stopped working, parked up and restarted bike OK then at next stop 5 minutes later alarm gave 4 bleeps rather than one when unsetting,bike would turn over but not fire and dash blank .. changed blown fuse and sorted. I suspect water may have gotten into the electrics as I jetwashed it a few days before ..

Do you mean you've done 42700 in 2 years?

What sort of riding do you do?

look after computer installations across the North West of England ... always ride to them unless the weather is absolute rats then I take the train .. before the 650 I wore out a string of Honda VT500s most of which died after 120000 miles ...

more miles since ..Image

Now that's a dream job! Glad to see these bikes can go the distance. What do you have bolted to the fairing above the dash?
