Congrats on the 100K mile mark!

Could someone tell me (for sure) what the three little zeros are to the left of the odometer?

This thing doesn't record up to 999 MILLION miles does it? :shock:

"ODO" as in "Odometer".

"It's a can of Coors / brewed from a mountain stream / it'll set your head on fire / and make your kidneys scream!"

Sorry - 70's flashback there... 8-[ Colorado Cool Aid - Johnny Paycheck

You need to come up with a list of places to go and things to see and start knocking them off.

Thanks for starting this thread. I'm just a little late is all. Went over to Casa Grande to see a friend for lunch and watch the odo turn over. Guess I hit a few bugs along the way. Just gave me something to see while I washed the bike.

There is an alternate answer... :lol:

I was there in the 60's, I was just too young to do what you guys were doing back then. :mrgreen:

That's my story; sticking to it!

Back to the original topic in this thread...Clamper & Jon - congrats on 100k \:D/
