Thumbs up 28 years and still going strong.... (the bike, not me)

My stable has had aloooooooooooot of bikes over the years which have come and gone. I'm a high mileage rider (over 500K in my lifetime). Something special about my little 'ole F2. I've carted her around the country in various relocations, never wanted to give her up. Hard to believe this month it's been 28 YEARS!! Good grief, the time flies (and so does she)! Yes, these are F3 fairings (she deserved a makeover about 15yrs ago). No, I don't have any issues (leaks, running problems, etc). Turned 65k miles today while out on our 28th anniversary ride.

Awesome!

I just start my 25th year with my F2.
Got a few more miles on mine though.
Mostly original but still doesn't look 1/2 bad.

Both bikes are a credit to you guy's, I'm old school and love to see these bikes cared for

29 years on my CBR1000FS - It's been across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans twice, a dozen countries and 5 states including Hawaii - In fact it's done twice as many miles in a shipping container or towbehind than on its own wheels.
