Yup yup.... as the title states, she rolled over 200k earlier tonight without even so much as a hiccup, and still rolling right along and running like a dream!
I started looking through all my old pics and got all sappy, so I decided to do something a little different this time instead of the quick rollover video and a few pics. So I made a video, and started from the beginning and posted some pics from along the way of our travels, and then the video of it rolling over at the end. Music is a little cheesy, I know, but hey I had to add something in there, and plus it just seemed to kinda fit the theme pretty well, lol
YouTube - 2004 CBR 600 F4i turning 200,000 miles + brief history
And I'll put a few pics up anyways...
Being that it was getting dark, it made for getting pics 'at the scene' nearly impossible. This is about the only one that even somewhat turned out
Keeping with tradition, I had to get the shot at 19 miles, lol. First pics I took of the bike and odo were at 19, so I stopped and took one again at 19 after it turned 100k
Took a few more pics when I got home
Definitely living up to her name!
New GoPro... worked like a champ!
Since those kinda suck too, here's a couple daytime pics from the day before
As for the bike... it's still running like an absolute dream! Still ridden daily, never gives me a lick of trouble. As long as she keeps running good, I'll keep riding her.... still curious as to just how far she'll go!

That is absolutely awesome, Jared! When I traded my '01 f4i the guys at the dealership were astounded that I had 70,000+ miles and she was still running like a top. Aside from tires, chains, filters and such have you had to do anything special to achieve those miles? How many valve adjustments in that time? You should contact Honda's corporate offices and set up some kind of advertising gig. I'm sure there aren't many sport bikes around with that much "experience". I'm inspired now to see how many miles I can get from my '06 f4i. 50,000 and counting!
