111,111 km
« on: June 22, 2015, 05:34:31 PM »
In the car park at work today as I prepared to go home, I noticed my odometer was sitting on 111,110 km.

I knew I had to catch the next 1 km on camera and just hoped when it occurred there would be somewhere safe on Airport Drive to pull up.

As luck would have it, as I went through the roundabout, it clicked over and just the other side was a nice spot to pull up.

Cheers,
Gary

Well done!

I had a pic of my old Honda K2 turbo with a reading of 69696.9 MILES on the dial while touring Aus in mid 70's, but the pic has gone missing along with  a lot of other stuff, somewhere among the ex's property during the late 80's

Makes me realise I should have done all those number combinations from new  :||||  Too late to start now, but will try and get the 100,000kms.  I wonder if the Trophy does the same as the ST1300 and goes to zero after 199,999? No-one has got there yet to test it.

At least with the 1100 we can get 222,222 and all the way up to 999,999 if they last that long.

I was going to get a pic of mine at 175,000 but I forgot the camera so now it'll have to wait until 200,000 (only 34,000 to go)

I am currently very close to 170,000 with my ST 1100... will carry the camera with me more often as I watch the increase..

It rolls over at only 99,999 ?   :eek

No Biggles, that is from new in 1993. Got a long way to go before it rolls over.
