Sea his comment is in their right under the pic. He is just not dropping below the last quote mark before replying (if that makes sense)
It says "love that 14 dash"

Got this one on the ST last fall, but pulled over to take it so it was clear

Well...I made 1000 today...a long way from yours; but that's six weeks of playing with my new toy.
Weather out here in this part of Montana is phenomenal. It's like inland California - we have winter, sort of; and the mountain peaks all around are covered with white; but in town, in our valley? We had about six weeks of real cold. I've had the (now sold) BMW out since mid-February.
Is it normal? Dunno. This is my first winter here. But judging by all the high-end bikes and bikers here, I'd say it sort of is.

One of my best friends lives in Bozeman. Winters can be brutal there.

Oh...yeah. A lot of towns...the distance VERTICAL are as much as the HORIZONTAL distance between them.
We're at 3000 feet. But my job is on the railroad here; and I have to run trains through Mullan Pass. It's 5800 feet at the tracks' highest point - and this morning it was snowing lightly.
Get back into town and it's 62 and sunny.
I'm new here...don't know much about Bozeman, other than it was the Emerald City of Robert Pirsig's epic journey...

I had 10,000 on the clock last Friday, but that's km.
This morning in the garage I had 11,177, also a nice number.
However, I missed to see the 11,111 Sunday evening on the way home.
I started at 0 end of October last year (2014).

Yes, and no problems reported. All in spec. I meant to add that, because my bike didn't leave the showroom until May 2013 it's still in warranty. Just.

That's amazing. I wish we got 2 year warranties and I don't understand why you get 2 and we only get 1?
