Good idea, although I would not want this to look like a whinge list. And the caveat to some extent depends on the person looking after the bike!
I have a 2001 Adventure: 25K's+ - UK to India then to Sydney.
- Side stand joint (my fault - too much weight).
- Fuel pump started leaking after 3K - membrane fixed.
- Oil weep from rocker gasket - lasted 13K miles - no problems until recently fixed by mechanic. I should add that I unsuccessfully attempted twice to fix myself. Then gave up.
- Oil weep from engine window - still ongoing, no probs though.
- Clutch cable - Ha! Still intact (well lubed).
- Couple of spokes.
- Overheating problem (spark plug bad from too much shite fuel in India).
- Loose electrical connection on battery relay causing intermittent breakdown (took ages to locate!).
- Forks? Ha! - no problems - bled air often!
- Squeaky brakes - took ages to find pads which would not squeak - insignificant but very annoying.
Regards
James
