    I'm halfway there or a little over but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say they keep counting and do not roll over since it's digital. I can't swear to it as I haven't seen it mysef, though...

    Digital or not, I would think they roll back to zero. But then again, I could be wrong.

    They should keep counting, mine did.

    Will clock up 108,000km in a week or so.

    the bike turns to dust beneath you.
    some UPS driver just turned a million miles on his truck in Texas I think.

    Does that count though? I think the UPS trucks are like Diesel 18 wheelers, with sleeved cylinders and all that get all overhauled every so often. If was original motor/tranny I'd be much impressed.

    well, I may be going out on a limb here, but when I get over 100000 on my VFR I may look for something else... Not that I won't trust it, it's just that by then there should be something out there that I like better...

    Don't count on that I sold my VFR800 and my gsx1400 2 months ago to buy a run out 07 CBR1000RR
    which I liked at first but soon realized I had made a big mistake (50 year old back and wrists what the hell was I thinking) so I traded it on a 06 kawasaki ZX12R which is a bike I have always lusted after. It is a lot more comfortable and not a bad allrounder but 2 weeks into this bike and now it's up for sale.I am now looking for the best low mileage gen 5 I can find and once I get it,I won't be changing.This has been a very expensive circle of events but at least now I really am past the itch for something new just for the sake of it.
