3700 mi on my 09 figured id ride it ta 10K and sell it and buy another dual sport but am reconsidering after this thread haha so far no problems other than tires wearing out and normal maintance. I use it to commute, back roads and trails ( fairly hard on the trails as i mostly ride with guys on 125 2 smokes and a guy on a banshee) It keeps up fairly well but lacks on big hill climbs/wide open flat out riding scenarios.

 

9500 miles and counting.. change the oil and filter every 1000-1500 miles using Honda GN4 10w-40 bike runs like a top. at about 5000 i had to have warranty work done on the valve cover gasket, apparently there was a bad run of those. couldnt be happier with this bike!

 

Just closing in on 19000 KM's and not a problem has arisen. And I only change the oil every 3000 kms. no fancy oil either. Some generic conventional oil (Motomaster) that meets JASO certification.

 

I have 38,600 miles on mine. I just recently had to take speedo cable off. I have been working on KX 250 1992 fork install. I will work on installing the stock wheel after I have everything else worked out. I also might go to a Vapor dash so I can use both the KX wheel and the KLX wheel. I did not ride the KLX last summer as much to work mostly rode my VN900.

 

13,000 and its running perfect. If I ever do need to rebuild, I will look into a Ninja 500 motor mod.

 

Id love to see that deej! Itd be the ultimate dual sport then for sure

 

Or install an old Kawasaki Triple two stroke. Man I would kill myself in the first 100 ft. LOL

Like the one I saw at the hill climbs 2 years ago. Saaaaweeeeet!

 

Just passed my one year anniversary with my '09 and I've got about 1200 miles on it. I've changed the oil twice. Lots of mods but no problems. It was -3 degrees F this morning so I haven't been doing much riding. Is winter ever going to end?!

 

Just passed 30,000 kms, and only thing done was adjust valves and oil changes. All street riding, and I don't baby this thing either. Great little engines....

 

did i win--- 44128 km!

starter motor clutch is ****ed from the stator bolts unwinding them selves.

doing some work to it shorty thou.

starter motor clutch replace
fork and rear shock replace and set up for my weight
heavy duty clutch

the reason why i like this bike so much.
1 engines under 300cc are $200-$400 cheaper to register per year
2 seat is confortable
3 single track weapon
4 powerful enough to keep up with ktm 450's etc
5 hill climbs are easy
6 its green
7 it has an x in its name
8 i have built the bike/building the bike i want for far cheaper than what a pre built onne would be and its what i want

keep in mind the mods i have are
351 kit
tm33 carby
full stain tune muff
14L tank
