Well I'm happy to say.... my bike and I have made it to the 200,000 mile mark!

Yup yup.... as the title states, she rolled over 200k earlier tonight without even so much as a hiccup, and still rolling right along and running like a dream!

I started looking through all my old pics and got all sappy, so I decided to do something a little different this time instead of the quick rollover video and a few pics. So I made a video, and started from the beginning and posted some pics from along the way of our travels, and then the video of it rolling over at the end. Music is a little cheesy, I know, but hey I had to add something in there, and plus it just seemed to kinda fit the theme pretty well, lol

YouTube - 2004 CBR 600 F4i turning 200,000 miles + brief history

And I'll put a few pics up anyways...

Being that it was getting dark, it made for getting pics 'at the scene' nearly impossible. This is about the only one that even somewhat turned out

Keeping with tradition, I had to get the shot at 19 miles, lol. First pics I took of the bike and odo were at 19, so I stopped and took one again at 19 after it turned 100k

Took a few more pics when I got home

Definitely living up to her name!

New GoPro... worked like a champ!

Since those kinda suck too, here's a couple daytime pics from the day before

As for the bike... it's still running like an absolute dream! Still ridden daily, never gives me a lick of trouble. As long as she keeps running good, I'll keep riding her.... still curious as to just how far she'll go!

Excellent. You should submit that to Honda, maybe they'll give you something for it. Never know. Very nice to see someone riding their bike as much as you do.

Congrats (again) man!

Absolutely, they should at least give him a t-shirt or a gift certificate to his local Honda dealer or something. Maybe interview him and put him in a promo video.

awesome... what's crazy to me is how few states you've been in and hit 200k!

no crazy long trips coast to coast... just steady consistent riding... outstanding!

So awesome...
Its a shame the original engine couldn't make the trip.
