NT in the Super Class

Super Duper! just noticed that I surpassed my Honda PC 800 all time miles on one bike! PC had 160,560 miles. NT now has 163,528 miles. AND I would guess its the only NT in USA with THTAT many miles on it. no known engine issues.


ALL HAIL THE NT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Incredible!!

I have the same number of miles on my NT - but without the "1" in front.

That is incredible! That is over 38x more mi than mine has. Being new to the bike and this site, I assume you just perform standard scheduled maintenance and keep your eyes and ears out for potential issues?

David, I am not sure if I am more impressed that your NT has 163K on it or that you managed to put them on it and also did the same on another motorcycle. Your are a riders rider.

Magnificent! You are my hero and your bike is Dudley's hero! I'm still stuck at 115,176, but in another 350 miles, I'll have passed the mileage I had on my first '99 Concours when i totaled it.

People have been telling me that I need to replace Dudley but I just point at you and RUSTINPEACE and the fact that my NT still hasn't used any oil, still gets the same gas mileage it did at 10,000 miles, and still runs as strong as it ever did, and continue to decide that I don't need anything differently. Plus the fact that I've got it farkled to my idea of perfection. Granted, if I bought a different NT, I could transfer the farkeles, but that would be a pain the caboose.

Keep her rolling!

I'm curious if you have the valve checks done every 8000 miles or do you stretch the duration longer than that? Heck, seems you wouldn't be able to get so many miles due to the downtime in the shop.

Great job Dave.
Just move the decimal point one place to the left and you will be about average for a 6-year old NT.

yeah, that would slow me down! 8K miles is prescribed by Honda so they don't have any warranty claims. I watched those posting about longer intervals, after I found some, I started going 25K or so between checks, without being out of spec. only a slight adjustment made to bring into mid spec. I think I'm about 32K now, need to get done soon.

Congratulations! That is quite an achievement.

Dave, congratulations. You really have been putting the miles on your NT and give many us a reason to keep our NTs. Thanks.
