high mileage
Hi, not sure what sort of mileage people are covering but i tend to put a fair amount of miles on my work bike (about 35,000 - 40,000 per year) so i thought i'd run a thread on my bike as the mileage goes up. currently running a 2009 xt660z tenere as a work hack, bought new in june 2009 after selling my 1050 tiger (long story). it has the genuine yamaha luggage incl top box, the ali bash plate, centre stand and hand guards. i've fitted a scotoiler and a autocom and a set of leo vince cans.
I have carried out oil and filter changes myself at 600, 3000, 6000, and 9000 miles and have replaced the rear tyre at 8000 miles and the rear brake pads at 7500 miles and the front tyre at 10500 miles
The local dealer has just carried out the crankcase breather modification under warranty.
i'm getting around 65 mpg and so far not a single (!) problem.
