Ran into this chap again on Monday.
I first met up with him about a year ago, and he showed me his clocks, the bike was on 320k kms.
On Monday he tells me he's now sitting at 350k. He's had the bike from new IIRC.
Still looks good too.
Makes mine feel like its not being used.

Just missed 100 000 on my KLR before they stole it, bike had 12k on it when I bought it and 3 years later it was on 105k using some oil

My DL 1000 had 74000 Miles on it when I bought her she now has 196000 miles - Ok I did overhaul the motor 20k ago she is going better than ever

My KLE500 bought in August 2018 had 26 000km on and this morning she clocked 40 000km

A little update on "Oupa" as this bike has now been renamed .......

Sidpitt organised a Karoo "Dads & Lads tour" earlier this year and Archangel needed a bike to join ..... so what could I do, I lent him my trusty old 1150
http://www.wilddog.za.net/forum/index.php?topic=238277.0

To distinguish it from my "new" 1150, we started to call this one "Oupa" and my "new" bike "Wittes" for obvious reasons ......

Anyway, so "Oupa" was returned to me this week, to allow me to experience this event ......

Still going as strong as ever ......

I was a little emotional, thinking back to all the adventures that we had together ..... (see the first pages of this thread)

Getting there. 80 000km with me and the 1150 so far. Another year or so. Must note that with the sidecar it does double the work for half the kilo’s
