I got my gs500 around December 28 of 2005 so I guess we have been together about 6 months.  I have put almost 3,000 miles on it but I did not drive a lot in the winter.  I think it is time for me to install a new front sprocket.

A little over two weeks.  I need to take it out more though!  I've put less than 200 miles on her.
We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it - and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove lid. She will never sit on a hot stove lid again - and that is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one anymore. ~Mark Twain~

I owned my 2001 for 16 months before upgrading. That was 9,000 miles on that bike, only on the weekends.

Since New Year's Eve.  And not really that many miles.  I need to stop being such a slacker and ride more.

It's been a good 2006, though.

Bought it with roughly ~8,000 miles on it.  32,945 miles on it as of 5 seconds ago.

Not counting the year that I had a '90 in Hawaii.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?
