My birthday this year marked 3 years with my 2002 VFR which I have named Rhubarb. I bought it bone stock with around 45,000 km it has been by far and away my favourite bike of the nearly-dozen I've owned so far. It has also been the bike which I have kept the longest.

Back before the end of summer I hit a bit of a (metric) milestone and I thought I'd share with VFRD:

I've done plenty of consumables of course and have had one very strange issue with a short in the harness to the two rear coils along with the ass catching fire (long story). That's fixed now and the bike has been trouble-free otherwise. The only real modifications have been LED auxiliary lights, a DMR rear shock and a Pro Oiler GPS module.

I have no plans to change bikes any time soon and I will happily update the thread when I hit the next 6 digit number of 100,000 miles. :)
