Beemer Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Thought it'd be fun to share a photo since I passed 10K yesterday. Anyone else make it yet? I'm sure there's a few of you! I'm just over 5k. BTW, you shouldn't lane split @ 115 mph. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, I wish at times we could lane split here, you guys are so lucky. I would just about bet money that some old geezer would see me coming and close the gap on me. You know how they don't like kids on their lawn and bikes between their cars. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know how they don't like kids on their lawn and bikes between their cars.If I couldn't lane split, I might not be riding, or riding as often (commuting to work). Traffic is way too bad here that you'd just be a sitting duck roasting in the sun otherwise. Don't get me wrong, I've had a few close calls of the gap closing in. I don't think any of them have ever been intentional... some just can't drive in a straight line or are on their phones, etc. But maybe take a trip over to CA?

thomascrown Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I got close to 13,000 miles since I bought it in August 2015 That's a lot of miles in such a short time dude.

I use it for my commute to work every day, I put 150 miles every time I go to work and back, I just hope the motor would last for a few years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeHigh Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Wow, it is remarkable how much some of you guys ride in an year! I`m hoping to see many more new members of the 10K+ group in the near future. Anybody wants to start a prop bet on who gets to 100k miles first !? Even though I will not be participating, I am willing to donate to the prize pool to make things more interesting and appealing to all possible contenders. Maybe we can make it a community event, @admin?? MT-07 Prospect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamalv Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I packed the FZ 07 away last October with 19K on the clock. Just got it out and changed stock PR3s to Dunlop Sportmax Q3s and changed the chain and sprockets. I will probably use it again as daily ride through the summer. Tires pressures I use are typically 35psi-front and 40psi-back. I weigh about 250lbs on a good day These Q3s are very comfortable so far. Nice turns-ins and leaned over grip. No idea about the rain yet. I feel like I am doing my typical corner speeds, but there is still like a 2 inch chicken strip on both tires! I don't think i can go faster on my normal roads without taking unnecessary risks hehe. Since getting back on the little guy, I have been driving aggressively on the streets, zipping around, shooting gaps, braking hard, exiting curves with oomph. Its just I am grinning all the way through, but should slow down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's call it a "Community Award", or recognition, then To me it sounds like a big deal to be the first rider in pretty big community, like ours, that reaches a psychological milestone on new bike model (especially on a non-touring one). And the achivement is worth being noticed. We could at least get an interview with the person that will provide the first proof of 100k and get it published in a magasine or an important website/blog. This could also mean some exposure for our community MT-07 Prospect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
