I can think of something very pleasurable beginning with P but its not biking related

Pokemon?

No none of those.

Look in the urban dictionary for help

Checked this morning...64,300 miles 3 yrs and 9 months old.

Impressive. Bikes are to be ridden.

Very impressive, no one is going to beat that. Bike needed much replacing in that time ?

Excluding usual consumables.. And replaced plastics.. Only one clutch basket to reduce rattle noise..and two cct. And never serviced..just oil n filters done myself..and coolants.. Only had its first valve check done at 60,000. Most were out and probably won't leave as long next time..But bike is purring..still runs like new.. Oh and first clutch cable last week.

Dilemma is what bike next... Came from two triumphs.. 600 and then a 675 to this..and so impressed I find hard to consider anything else when come to retire it.. Not that I see that for a good while

Fwiw, why even contemplate it. It sound like she does everything you want, and still is plenty eager enough to keep you more than satisfied.
I'd say stick with your lovely girl R1ckster, she sure sounds like a keeper to me.

Get the new H2 from Kwak. That way the coppers won't be able to catch you

Just over 3,000..... I think I like this bike

21k on my 04 Daytona 600.

Owned it 7 years now and only done 9k in that time! 1k of which was a single trip! And 2 years sat unused

9k on the clock, for at least the second time since I've owned it.

Wow no valve clearances until 60k mind blowing ??? If it's still reliable and you enjoy it I would keep it as it has to be worth more to you than any silly PX offer on another bike.

Got to ask how have you racked up so many miles ? If that's in the twisities mega respect.

Yeah still starts first time..and never let me down yet. Deffo a keeper even if I did get new bike. Was offered 2.5k px on new one lol.. As for mileage every year do Europe trips and even down to faro. Everyday commuting and occasionally trackdays.. Buy last two years been up and down from Stoke to london weekly so that's a big chunk.

2.5k is not worth swapping for
