    Here are 3 of mine, I still need to get the Dirt bikes odo as it is stored on the othe side of town.
    If Nate' takes to riding the Ninja I will withdraw it. Don't really expect to compete since my weekends will likely be dirty, but it should be interesting.

    I'm in no hurry really. I've only put a few hundred on the SV and Transalp. I'm waiting on the Hayabusa to get out of the shop. I have to break it in right, after all the work being done. A nice little jaunt up to the Sawtooth Mountains or down to the Apache Highway will do just right

    Mayo, I want to be sure to toss some $5/10 into the pot. Should I give it to you when we ride (hopefully sometime soon), mail it to you, or something else?

    I can't believe more people don't want to have a little fun with this. It's free!

    A little late, and not likely to be at the top, but an interesting way to track my mileage. Planning on upgrading bikes this summer, but riding this one currently.

    How's that belt sander holding up? I find the belt tends to migrate to the right. Don't forget to take care of the strips too.

    That's right buddy! I was referring to you specifically! You're lucky that we're not in the same class...or else.

    Actually, 900 miles was kind of painful, and I'm not really sure I want to do it again anytime soon. At least not on an r6

    We just took a round about way down to santa fe for a couple days. Did some camping, it was great. I'll throw up a thread later with a couple pics. It was our first "touring" ride.
