I haven't been riding lately. I've been so busy with work and all that. Mileage is still at a little over 101,000.:banghead::laugh:
 
Congrats! I remember the day my V-Max went over 100k, and now my little commuter bike (Honda 599) has 88k on it. As for my Busas, I've only got around 48k between the two of them. :-/

I know, I'm an embarrassment to the board. Lol. Seriously though, your bike looks amazing for the miles you've put on it. That's no easy feat.

Damn I had a VMAX also. 98 model. I went through 4 engines(1)orginal 98, 2)rebuilt the 98, 3) bought an 06 engine 4) 86 engine, in 6 years with the odometer reading 45K. Great bikes as long as you dont grip and it rip it often.
 
Congrats! I don't have anywhere near those miles, but I think my Busa is one of the most dependable machines I've ever owned. You must feel that way.

Should be able to go another 100k, no problem, with normal maintenance! I am over 200k as of this year! It's all the little things that will get you, not the motor. Fuel pump, wiring issues ect.
