I don't think you can. If it were possible then we would start seeing a whole lot of 3-4 year old bikes for sale with zero miles on them.

Get an electric drill, and the end of an old speedometer cable, and spin the odometer untill it passes 99,999.9 , and it will be zeroed out. VWW

Ha! Brilliant.

Remind me to never buy a motorcycle from you.

BMW4VWW · 04-29-2005, 05:11 PM

Are you sure? I have a Kawasaki A1, and a Yamaha R5 both with only 5 miles on them. VWW

As far as I'm concerned, there are already a whole lot of 3-4 year old bikes with virtually zero miles... I see 2000 model year bikes with less than 5000 miles all the time around here. I guess some people think that's a lot of miles, but I generally put 1000-1500 miles per month on mine. Maybe I'm just weird.

LOL! I was expecting someone to make that comment.

I know a guy at work with a 97 Shadow 1100 with only about 1500 miles on it.

I'd still be suspicious if a 3 year old bike only had 75 miles on it, though. Even HD rubby posers ride more than that.

Really? What a coincidence. My GSX1100G is only going to have 5 miles on it tomorrow afternoon, too.

I had a 2002 CBR954RR that kept melting the tachometer face every 3-4k miles. I would replace the whole instrument cluster under warranty every time and the miles would be at 0. That is an expensive way to go about it if you are not under warranty though. If you have a new bike with 100 miles, why not get the cluster replaced under warranty? Doesn't Kawazuki offer a warranty on the 600RR?
