I'm curious to know who's done the most miles on a KLX in a single day's ride (24 hour period).

I rode just over 500 miles in one day when I was giving some moral support to a friend who was going for an "Iron Butt" (1000 miles in less then 24hrs)certificate on his Harley. I met him at the halfway point. He made it (barely).He alsoshelled out mucho $$ because you can't go that farin that amount of time in Japan without takingtoll roads the entire way.

Thanks - I did do a search for before posting, but nothing came up. And, that link is what, 5 months old? 20k miles on a couple - at least I know mine can last quite a long time.

Damn! That's like what? 11 hours in the saddle? The stock saddle? impressive. They should give you an honorary Iron Butt. (A green plastic butt.)

LOL! My butt felt nothing like iron when I was done, that's for sure. Actually, when that part started feeling numb is when other parts started hurthing,like wrists. It would have been cool to havethose those plastic supports to rest my wrists on...especially on the throttle side.
