I've searched and could not find any threads that are a rolling update on the current mileage of our dogs.

I plan to log every 500 (from this point forward) miles with the date and current mileage to make a time stamp of current activity. I also plan to log any issues/resolutions with my bike during this time frame, and maintenance performed. Some posts will be more detailed that others.

March 2, 2008 (I know that the date is on the post)

847 miles. No problems.

I'm at 1325 miles. I've been a little slow packing on the miles with the cold weather and all. Looking forward to the season breaking shortly.

I will buy the 1st round
08 EFI k9

well I have had my bike for two weeks, (real newbee here) and I am at 204 miles Lots of rain, wind, and lil chil here in NC.. I have only filed up 1 time and its getting 46.6 mpg. 155 / 3.3gal= 46.6 mpg.. But my big question is...is it normal for the fuel light to come on after using 3.3 gal's.. that is all I can pack into the tank , like I said its my first tank of gas..Thanks to all I have used several of the ideas and advice..Flip tag, removed stickers and lost the refelectors somewhere???? :cheers:

How do u keep the Dog clean??? Is it a pain in the ass? I know if you put that many miles ur gonna get caught in rain or at least get a whole lot of road grime on the Dog? how do you deal with that?
