Title: First 1k miles ridden in 3 weeks, so many more left
Post by: hokierower on August 01, 2010, 05:25:30 PM
Went for a ride today totaling 306 miles and surpassed the 1k milestone.  Had an awesome trip in the Hill Country west of San Antonio.  Bought it with 2163 miles and now I'm sitting around 3300.

The first 1000 miles on used bikes are way better. When I was younger I bought a new ninja 250, and with the break in period over the first 1000 miles, I spent a week topped out at 35mph in 6th gear, it was pretty lame.
