wrooster Posted December 17, 2004 Is 500 miles on it alot? 500 miles of what? 500 miles of gentle backyard figure eights by a father shepherding his 2 young kids on their PW50's? 500 miles of joe-average trail riding? 500 miles during the Reno-to-Vegas off road race? 500 miles of AA level enduro riding? so the answer ranges from "it's just broken in" to "holy crap, that thing is still running?". and, it depends on what was done during that interval; all 500 miles on one oil change would be a definite downer no matter what the riding was like. jim aka the wrooster '01 wr250f Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelsUp Posted December 17, 2004 500 miles of what? 500 miles of joe-average trail riding? so the answer ranges from "it's just broken in" to "holy crap, that thing is still running?". LOL! Wolfpack and I did nearly 75 miles our first day... my first day on 2 wheels (and I kept the wheels DOWN!) 😢 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
