    53-53K....but,

    I think the speedo might have been replaced by a PO - unsure if he said something about that or not - runs fine anyway.

    (currently worried he will run out of heartbeats before running out of miles)
    John is in an anonymous city with an Alamo (N29.519227,W-98.678980)

    Go ahead, click on the bikes - you know you want to...the electrons are ready.

                    I got my 79F model with 40004 KM on the original speedo. I have since changed out the speedo but have put on perhaps an additional 2500 KM. This engine is just a baby :-)

                      Mine had 60k on it when I got it, and about 65k when the speedo finally gave up, I ride to work everyday and that was almost 2 years ago so I'm guessing some where around 80+, not rebuilt...

                            My '79F is ready to roll over to 39,000 miles in a day or two, bought it with 32,000 miles last year around this time. No reason to think it has ever been rebuilt.

                                The speedo when I got it said about 17,000 I replaced it with a better one that says 53,000. Who knows? It was pretty rough and has about 4K since I restored it last year.
