I keep record of everything done to the bike so will put up some info about that when I have time. Been really busy lately, starting a new job on Friday that's less than 15 miles from home. Should have a bit more time to myself after the initial training period. The Strom's mileage will be going up very slowly now. I plan to get a DR-Z400, use that for everyday riding and trial riding. If I have a 2nd bike I can fix up the Strom a bit, it would be nice to give it some attention without having to rush it.

So tomorrow the Strom will be 1 day from (semi-)retirement? Keep an eye on it! I've seen enough cop films to know that's when problems happen! :-D

Congrats on the mileage. However I did see the fuel tank is getting low. So when you fill it up please let us know how much it took. That many miles on a tank full is brill!!!!.
