Have joined the 100,000 club!!!
« on: October 03, 2015, 07:59:02 AM »
I recently clicked over to 100,000 km on my blue ST13! Captured that 'exact moment' (photo attached) just south of Broken Hill on the Silver City Hwy. Not sure it was a good day having that 'extra' digit light up in the odo, but I can certainly look back on many many happy k's on her...
Anyone else captured a (or another) moment like this?

Congratulations Sim, on finally getting your ST run in.     Mine turned over 100,000km  while riding the OzSTOC IBA ss1600k out of Coffs Harbour last October, and while I intended to capture the moment, I was in the LD groove and did not stop.  She's now showing 135k.   :thumb

Well done. I agree just run in, was a long time ago I passed that, just over 181,000  klms now looking forward to the 200.000 klms.  Big mileage means nobody wants to buy or trade in my BIG BEAUTY, so I will just keep it.  Just a thermostat and steering head bearings so far.  A great bike, I just love it.

My mechanic just had a 2013 St 1300 come in with 9000 klms on it and the clutch completely burnt out, thousands for parts, HOW DID HE DO IT ??? who knows.

I have heard that once the the ST1300 passes 200,000 klms it resets to 0 klms.
So the2013 ST1300 may actually have 209,000 klms :eek
(Or the owner just cant ride without damaging the bike :fp)
