Title: Around the World on my Super 8 150
Post by: klaviator on October 31, 2016, 04:46:51 PM

It's 24,901 miles around the Earth at the equator. The Odometer on my Super 8 just rolled over that number about an hour ago. Not bad for a 150cc, 10.3 HP, air cooled scooter. It took me just under 6 years to do it.  That's about 4200 miles per year which is not that much but I do have three other bikes that I also ride.

Congrats mate, well done.   Although when I read the thread title I thought you were going to do an adventure trip.   :D

Congrats.
A couple of yrs ago I remember thinking that I  had just rolled over the distance that would have taken me to the Big Sur - on this little plastic Chinese  made scooter!
Amazes me....the miles these things can go with just basic servicing.
