Finally hit the 60,000 mile mark

sleeper_red · 11-29-2009, 08:55 PM

I finally did it this morning. Left the house at 4:30 am. It was 32* when I left. Rode for 4 hours to get to this point. She's 2 years, 2 months and 2 days old as of today. Next goal, put 40,000 miles by September 27 of next year. I want to see 100,000 miles on her when she turns 3. We'll see. Anyway, I just wanted to share.

congrats! Have you had to do anything mechanically to the bike? (excluding regular scheduled maintenance)

Thanks. The only two things that were replaced excluding regular scheduled maintenance were the fork seals and the cush drive.

Just roughly at what mileage did each of those get replaced?

I think fork seals were done at 40,000+ and the cush drive at 30,000+.
