Wow Garry,
Congratulations! Is hard to believe you won't be reporting in the miles on Kawi. Here is wishing you many happy Yami miles! Ride safe, Smokier

Hopefully the new owner will continue the tradition of riding and reporting!
I'll get on his case when he returns from his month long tour of the Maritimes. He had his VTX in for service to prep it for this trip when he saw Voyager parked there, asked about it and traded bikes. It takes a very special person to trade bikes 4 days before leaving on a big trip, and to buy a used bike with lots of miles on it! Y'all be nice if he shows up on here.

I wonder if the new owner thought it was 67,946 kms on your bike like the dealer did when he first gave you a trade in price :)

I believe the new owner will be pleased. After all the posts I have read I can only assume this was well cared for and ultimately well maintained. Miles do not seem to be as detrimental to vehicles as the years. Years seem to take more of a toll. And keep on him about posting!!
Once again congratulations on the new ride. Be safe.

I've attached the photo that he did... Only 22,200 miles since then, so I guess he's used his other bike quite a bit.

Hey Garry - Will you still continue to offer the Fork Braces? I'm sure there are at least a few out there that don't have one yet.

It's a good thing Garry never rode in the rain, or his bike may have had over 1,000,000 kms
