    Not being too much with the self gratification. But for 30 years old, and almost 51,000 miles on it from new. She's still looking nice. I love it.

    Yes your bike looks great, but 51000 miles isn't a massive amount have you had any big jobs done on it? I'm at 32000 on my 4 year old tiger 900gtpro and it runs beautiful

    No, no big jobs at all. I know it's not a massive amount of mileage. I've got my V Strom for the long distance touring, but it's been to France, Germany, Holland, Luxembourg, Belgium, and used to live in spain when I lived there.

    Dealers look down on a bike that's done over 20k and an excuse to give you peanuts in part ex not the same with a 1.0 litre 3 cylinder car pulling a weighty body and 4 people and luggage....

    Your Thunderbird is absolutely beautiful, @Bikerman! As others have said, that's a credit to you. I suspect your bike also knows that it's loved and it shines as a result. :):heart:
