Bike actually has about 32k miles, replaced the odometer first year I had it, but crossing 30k is much cooler with photographic evidence.

30k miles in 3 years? I can beat that

rusninja · September 5th, 2011, 10:59 PM

nice! :P most people will probably ask how much owners x]

Nice

Snake · September 6th, 2011, 10:04 AM

That is great Ryan. I thought I was doing good with 23K on my bike.

dubojr1 · September 6th, 2011, 11:09 AM

Amazing!

thisisbenji · September 6th, 2011, 11:31 AM

How much maintenance have you had to do?

oroboros · September 6th, 2011, 12:32 PM

at the recent Deals Gap gathering we had 2 guys with 50K+ on their 08's.

Cool to see you hit the 30K mark!.... Time to sell and get a liter bike

I'm planning a blog post to count it all up. I'll have to do some thinking...

choneofakind · September 6th, 2011, 01:06 PM

that's awesome! I'm still not bored of my bike. I love it. I am able to learn something new every time i ride it, or just enjoy what it CAN do. Even though that 600cc-supersport-educed tunnel vision is a thrill, I still love my bike. It's perfect for what I need it to be

azimmer11 · September 6th, 2011, 01:15 PM

you look bored in that picture

FBNTH · September 6th, 2011, 01:22 PM

I had to laugh when I saw the title of this thread. I had this conversation with my MSF instructor. He told me to just get a 600 because I would get bored with a 250. I respectfully disagreed.

2011Ninja250R · September 7th, 2011, 08:44 PM

Awesome.

Live2ride · September 7th, 2011, 09:08 PM

That's one hell of an accomplishment

. I wonder how many of those "you'll outgrow it" people would look at that pic and, rather than see the 30k mile mark, just say "damn, that thing can go 60mph?!?"

congrats on the 30k

"You'll outgrow it / get bored of it in a few months."

I am finding this to be VERY true!! Guess to each their own, but I'm 99% getting a FZ6R next season.

Kudos for being completely off topic.

DarC · September 8th, 2011, 07:24 AM

Nice

I just crossed 16700 on mine and the guy who had it hardly rode it...my turn

Currently doing about 200 or so a week...kind of wish I had a longer commute.

If I end up getting another bike I have a feeling it may take some time to hit 30K as the miles will be dramatically dropped on the 250 as the wife takes over primary duty.

Jiggles · September 8th, 2011, 10:33 PM

Yea, I just outgrew my 250r and bought another 250r. So now I have 500r

Alex · September 9th, 2011, 05:49 AM

Don't you mean 500rr?
