   Thats pretty impressive,  Not  many bikes make it to 75,000 let alone 100,000. You guy with over that, its hard to believe. Oil changes and taking care of what you have is pretty prevelent here. I'm impressed. Wasn't aware you had two bikes Carl?

We have yet to find a Valk engine that has been worn out. 

400,000+ miles and still ticking....

Many 200,000 mile Valks.

LOADS of 100,000 mile Valks.

I have 2.  They have 45K and 35K.  Hardly a qualifier for "high" mileage.  They will probably last forever.

I know, I should ride it more but I do love riding the 1150rtp also, just not on trips

Even with all these miles, it amazes me at how "new" these bikes still look. Most people can't believe my Valk has 132,000 miles. Then you see these bikes posted here with 150k, 200k......... 459k miles! That look like they just rolled off the showroom floor. (or better)...... I love it!   cooldude

We have yet to find a Valk engine that has been worn out. 

400,000+ miles and still ticking....

Many 200,000 mile Valks.

LOADS of 100,000 mile Valks.

I have 2.  They have 45K and 35K.  Hardly a qualifier for "high" mileage.  They will probably last forever.

The way mine looked when I bought it looked like a neglected 100,000+. Its been a real chore to get it where it is at now but I'm still chuggin along on it. Got a couple more months but it has been fun! Kinda like polishing a turd.
