LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT A 100,000+ MILES METRO .
EACH LINE REPRESENTS ABOUT 1,000 MILE OIL CHANGE. 4 DOWN 1 ACROSS = 5. OVER 75 OILCHANGES. HE STOPED WRITING THEM DOWN OVER THE YEARS.

THE SHOCK HAS A BIKE TUBE WRAPPED AROUND THE SPRINGS AND TAPED.

THE GRIPS HAVE NO GRIP.

ANYONE KNOW WHAT YEAR THE BATTERY IS?




THE STAND PIPE WAS ROUND

HEAD LIGHT AND ALL LIGHTS CUTOFF SWITCH


THE BLUE COVER IS TO KEEP HIS LEGS WARM





WELL FORUM WHAT DO YOU THINK.

from day one every time he stopped by I get to see the miles.

every year he averaged over 10,000 miles.

lets see a vespa with dio swap g9

Any pics of the trailer?

hi G9, without of valve adjustment I don't think it's going to go much longer. It's getting slower by the day. Lol.

He's been getting his air filters from Home Depot a Briggs and Stratton lawn mower has the same air filter he tells me.

over the years I've witnessed the miles pile on, and you just don't get that wear and tear overnight.

one of the local Honda dealers wanted to put it on display. but because there's no documentation on oil changes they decided to pass. He did his own oil changes.
this metro needs to be in a magazine. not because of the miles but because no valve adjustment has been done.

when I change out the brakes I will post more photos

the old fart doesn't want to spend a dime on it. and wants to get a ruckus.

I just had to add a photo for G9 to see.

hi RCS. I think he still has the trailer? I will check and post some photos.

Greetings:

Not much longer? Pshaw! It's a Honda!! Adjust those valves and it's good for another 100K. (I'd like to see some Cheap-* clone knock-off from Certain Countries that don't mind stealing good ideas without paying for themmatched up with Honda quality...)

you're right wheelman. Butt After 12 years he wants something different. oh this metro has climbed Mt Washington.
Well its starting to get cold around here. looks like we'll have to keep warm somehow?

hay G. I was looking for a photo to post butt can't find one at the moment.
looks like you have to see the one from last week again. ^
