Bonneville America Forums Forums Off Topic Discussion Forums Lounge 149,000 miles

Today I hit 149,000 miles on the 2006, Triumph America 8-3-25.
The miles just keep jacking up and up.
I put 2,000 miles the America in one month.
7/8/25 I hit 147,000, therefore I put 2000 miles in less than a month.
I averaged 77 miles a day.
Not bad for a soon to be 69 year old.
I just wish I could stop smoking cigarettes.
But I digress
HAPPY & SAFE RIDING TO ALL

Just curious, you guys with over 100,000 on these bikes, have you guys had to do timing chain or tensioner work?

No new timing chain or tensioner, I don't know what a tensioner is.
The only big thing was the electronic brain for the America that part was $800.
Other than that changed the head gaskets, oil changes every 8,000 miles and lube chain every 800 miles.
