They are serious ks mate. Apart from consumables anything broken? I heard of 14 with 312ks just west of here. Timing chain broke, destroyed motor. My opinion on that is he wouldve/shouldve heard a problem, fixed it b4 breaking.

A few more kms on the 14. Just happened to land on that exact number at the servo on the way home tonight.
It will get a break during May and June as I
have another bike I'm planning to put a few kms on - probably around 20k kms!

Damnit, I've got some catching up to do!

Apart from the usual tyres, chain and sprockets (about every 45k kms), brake pads, oil and filters (every 5k kms) front wheel bearings, rear wheel bearings x 2, sprocket carrier bearing x 3, fuel filter clean (every 40k kms or so), k&n air filter clean (every 15k kms or so) it's a fairly short list I think.
Replaced 6 pot calipers with GSX600 4 pot calipers as less susceptible to issues that come with daily riding in all weather conditions. Front fork legs chrome wore through (bushes still looked ok so just thin chrome I think) - I replaced with low kms full fork legs tubes and sliders and have since rebuilt the originals. Front discs x 2 sets and rear x 1. Chain guard bracket broke- fixed with a bit of aluminum angle and a couple of screws. Rear shock adjusters refilled with oil and torx screws replaced with hex cap screws. Main power wire corroded and rejoined. Injectors cleaned after dealer routed tank drain line incorrectly and got water in the tank. Seat cover split so foam dressed up and recovered. Gear linkage rose joints broke (1 front 1 rear). Front master cylinder has had a kit through it. Clutch master has had a kit through it and the slave a new seal and the Busa seal fitted.
Front footrest rubbers replaced.
Valve clearances have been checked regularly and don't seem to move.
Engine uses no oil and runs great. Fuel consumption hasn't varied other than with the right wrist.
Pairs removed and slip on pipe and PC3 from new.
Can't think of anything else and I reckon it still scrubs up ok after a quick tub!

Looks good. A very faultless life, chain guard only. Amazing bikes.

Pretty durable machines, the fork legs chrome disappearing is disappointing and your TPS's doing the journey is interesting fairly economical mooring all in all though,

Have a good weekend ,

It's my turbo engine. Not tuned by Mr. Somebody in Some dyno.
When I adjust all by myself I need some information.
It has worked now 47 000 km with turbo, so it can't be totally wrong.
