'99 with 41,000 miles, most of them mine over the past two and a half years. Should be good for plenty more.

Mine's just over 17,000 but only a few hundred down to me so far. I did 16,000 on my TBS in 2 years.
Charlie, any chance of a post on what maintenance /repairs you've done in all those miles?

Lets see, in 65,000 miles. I have basically followed the standard maintainace schedule from Triumph. Though I have only changed the fuel filter once and the air cleaner3 times. I am on my 3rd set of sprockets and 4th chain. Changed the fork oil 4 times and the engine oil about every 5,000 miles. I've alway used either the Triumph oil or Mobil1 MX4T. I did use Mobil1 15-50 gold cap once, it worked OK and didn't get any clutch slip, but I could feel a difference in the way it engaged so didn't use it again.
My OEM brake pads lasted about 16,000 on the rear and 32,000 on the front. I replaced them with EBS organics but they didn't last half as long as the Triumph pads and didn't have the same bite so am back to using the Triumph pads. I need to replace my rear brake disk. and the front disks are going to need it before to long.
I replaced the front wheel bearings when they started getting a little noisy. About 35,000 mile I think.
My Counter shaft sprocket seal started leaking a little and replaced that with my last set of sprockets.
The seal inside the alternator cover (it seals around the counterbalance shaft which acts as the vent) started leaking and allowed oil to get sucked into the air box.
I replace my radiator cap last year and I just bought a set of radiator hoses as mine are getting soft and weepy at the ends.
I have tried to stay ahead of the game on maintenance and really haven't had any problems to speak of. It has never let me down.
