Rolled 100,000 after about a 60 mile ride. I've recently adjusted valve clearances, synched the carbs.
Awesome!!

I didn't do anything but ride mine today, but had to comment on the 100k.

I'll agree with that. 100K on the clock is always worth celebration. I get a kick out of clocking 10K.
Congratulations fella, let's hope she lives long enough to do it all over again.

holy crap does this bike run absolutely monsterous when its cooler outside. it was about 65* or so here as well this morning and damn the bike pulls hard. because the air is a little cooler the bike is able to run almost half a point leaner for AFR, too.
