I copied it all, and pasted it into a word document....and will transcribe it into a spreadsheet....someday....when I have about a month....

any chance on finding the "How much would you pay"... posting about the extended warrentees?

Rich, I did a search and didn't really come up with anything.  If you can just repost the intial info, contact information, and such, I'll make it a sticky again.

[MAN OF BLUES]

Thanks, I got what I needed.....


folks, please refrain from turning this into a "discussion" post from here on out, it was originally meant to be a post of 'documentation on VIN, purchase date, dealer, price, location, and COG affiliation (COG#).[/b]

thanks for helping on the old, and now new database....I'll decode the old one, and make a spreadsheet.

Brake recall notice rcv'd 1/16/09

[Son of Pappy]

So, something slightly differant, when you post a comment, please include date purchased and either new or from a PO.  Lets see who the riders are and how well this bike has stood up over the miles.  Although discouraged, KiPASS comments are welcome.  Share any issues you have had with the bike, be it brakes, KiPASS, Gear Position Indicator (My issue), broken bars, burning oil, leaking final drive, or any electrical issues.  Also indicate if you did the extended warranty-I did, I had only the one issue, I figured the gremlins read about the 3 yr, unlimited mileage and were just waiting for it to expire, so I cheated them out of the chance to wreck my bike the day after 8 July of this year

09 ABS leftover model purchased this past fall, haven't hit 10k miles yet so have to vote "other" on your poll...

Fixed it to include bikes just under or approaching the mileage mark!  Hence th+/- at the end.
Well see who gets there first

[martin_14]

Black '08 ABS leftover, got it in march '09, and she gets 4 months winterised due to snow. So technically, I've only been driving her for 19 months, in which she's got 18k miles.
Issues? I keep needing refueling and tires, sometimes at an alarming rate (140 mph in the Autobahn mean some 100 miles range before the beacon perforates my cornea and the back of my skull, and the rear tire does not last more than 3-4000 miles). Other than that, just the vibration at 4k rpm that got solved by adding a 50 cents washer.
God, I like this bike!

EDIT 5th of August, 2013: bike has 45k miles. I had to get the valve cover seal changed about 7k miles ago. That's it. The fuel/tires problem has not been solved

[stevewfl]

'10 well over 30,000

10,000 or so more coming next month

[Tactical_Mik]

My 09 is in the 23K range.  Got it with 300 mi. on it 11-25-09.  The only engineering issues I've had are warped rotors. 

The only way I could have had more miles on it is if I got another job.  Then again, I wouldn't have time to ride then.   

[vivo]

My 09 was a leftover... have had it almost a year, maybe 11 months. Only has 5000 miles on it as it shares seat time with my Griso,

viovo

[S.Ga.Rider]

09 bought used with 1200 miles and has 10300 right now. I have a 1500 mile trip shortly so that will put it around 12000.

[VirginiaJim]

'08 ABS purchased in Aug of '07.  Problems with the rotors, other than that, nothing.

Isn't this a duplicate of http://www.zggtr.org/index.php?topic=146.0 other than the poll?

Convince me why I shouldn't merge this with the other one started by MOB (Rich)?  I'm open to convincing....maybe, possibly, beer helps.
