100,000 miles!

**wompus** · 11-10-2010, 09:52 PM

Well, heck, I forgot to brag on my bike last week. I just passed the 100,000 mile mark on my 99 Nomad!

I'm amazed how well it still runs even with the way it has had to endure pulling a loaded trailer all over the United States.

I guess I'm near the halfway point to the bike and I expect to get another 100,000 miles on it in the next 10 years.. or sooner if possible! ;)

Sometimes, maybe, you don't want your bike to talk.

Congrats. on the 100K mikes.

Mike, congrats on the milestone mileage.

audiogooroo · 11-10-2010, 10:43 PM

Nicely done pal!
No doubt the 99 (once the pog has been replaced) is an amazing ride! And I am a little partial toward the green on green. :)

**coacha** · 11-10-2010, 10:55 PM

Congrats Mike! I'm sure you don't want the bike talking too much,

**Idaho** · 11-10-2010, 11:15 PM

Congrats. What kind of repairs did you make in that many miles?

**Cajunrider** · 11-10-2010, 11:47 PM

That's one heck of a milestone. Hope mine makes it that far.

Mike, Here's (or cheers) to wishing you have another 100,000 trouble free mile.

Good for you and the ride. I guess the 1500's are the cream of the crop.
