Curious who has the most miles so far!

I think every station I fill up at is 10%.

My pleasure, since we were mostly abandoned as purchasers I kind of felt like we needed to document what works and what doesn't.

22k miles stock plugs, hopefully not original.

This comment makes my brain hurt.

lol...

I'm at 11.5k miles. Starting to feel heavier vibrations, too. It's mostly at the 3-4k rpm range. Above and and below it feels normal.

I lost a motor mount bolt somewhere between 12K and 14K miles. Check those and re-loctite if needed.

I lost a motor mount bolt at like 3k miles. I'll check them all again, but I'm pretty sure it's all there.

24K miles, no drama to report.

What mods do you have, and/or what's maintenance been like? I did the Pod Mod, and I'm hoping that can reduce the valve wear. Was 6k mile valve inspections really necessary?

For you guys loosing motor mount bolts, which ones seem to be the culprits?

Top mount on the right side of the bike. I would take a pic but it's way to cold to go out to the building where the bike is.

941mi.

Thanks. I'll check all of them but keep a particular eye on that one.

I'm just over 1,800 miles right now.

Same here

Same on my Terra

I think this is the bolt that you guys are talking about. Mines magically dissapeared as well.

I'm at 2,760 miles now. I recently noticed a bit of extra vibes and checked all the motor mount bolts. The top ones were tight but I pulled and loctited them anyways. I did find the lower rear mounting bolt a bit loose, it snugged up about a 1/3 of a turn or so. The front 2 bolts were pretty snug.

The swingarm pivot bolt was uber tight, no issues there.

Just did a 12k mile valve inspection. All four valves were adjusted at 6k to be at biggest gap allowable. They're all now dead in the middle.

Things of note: I cleaned throttle body insides (stupid airbox!) and performed a Pod Mod on it at around 7k miles. the TB innards are as clean as the last time I took it apart, which tells me the pod mod is doing it's job.
Each valve wore almost exactly .03mm in 6k miles, which should put them at the narrowest of their range for the 18k checkup, so I'm expecting to do adjustments then.
I don't do much off-road, or dusty environments. I live in the PNW.
Ran AMSOIL 10W-40 Motorcycle oil instead of 10W-50, as arecommended. Minimal parts wear debris on the drain plug magnet. MUCH less than at the 6k inspection.


Tentative conclusion: Pod Mod gives TR650 12k Valve checkup interval.

16,300 klms, no probs
