Well, I'm lagging behind now due to an extended business trip. I'm sitting just shy of 15K with no motor issues at all (not even an oil leak), no broken belts, and one funky front end (replaced).

Love the bike. Miss the hell out of it. Hopefully I can do something about that over Christmas.

14K AND NO ISSUES REALLY

but the milage is getting divided up between the bolt and my triumph tiger. the tiger has become a communter and unpaved road extravagaza.

we found some really cool dirt and gravel roads here in the smokeys.

found one strech kinda like the dragon 418 turns in 14 miles....and no pavement...wwooooo hhhooooooo

Buckin,

He got it in 02, not sure when.


You probably have the record of the most miles in the shortest period of time! Good for you.

5500 miles in exactly 3 months. One oil line needed to be snugged up and appears the speedo sensor is leaking a tad. Minor stuff. Didn't ride it for about 3 weeks waiting for the Drummer and a rear tire puncture.

Guy here in New Bern is claiming 87,500 mi on his X1 Lightning. I suck, only have 4000 miles since July but it was down for a while after I abused it against a car. Does that mean my warranty is void?

Aydenxb9, sorry you abused it; the warranty is gone. Hope you don't have any problems.

I got my XB12 in August. Since the actual time I have been around it since I got has been limited it has just over 2300 miles on it. At the 600 mile mark it went in for a new front rockerbox gasket. Otherwise I haven't been able to treat it like it wants me to.

Viros maybe we should plan on riding to see the "Man" together. We'll have to keep in touch.

As far as the 20k club there are a couple of others that post on here that have that already over 20k, but they have had theirs longer than us.

As of today (which is 8 months for me) I have 18551.

My bike has a electrical problem now. The clock looses it's memory every now & then upon start-up.
Has anyone had this problem, and is this a warranty issue?
