G5 Crosses 30,000 Miles

My G5 is playing April Fool's Day, its odometer is reading over 30,000 miles
!
Went for a beautiful 100 mile ride from NJ to PA and back on a pleasant day - finally the winter is over.
Coincidentally it is my 2,000

Great. Any serious problems? I just hit 722 miles on mine. I will change the oil again at 1000 miles, and then start taking longer rides. I hope to get it up to 2000 miles before it gets too hot to enjoy riding here (Phoenix, AZ) Riding season starts again next October, other than night riding.

Well done, Singhg5! I'm not surprised, what with the way you care for the bike - and we all have the evidence in your great videos!
I wonder, is that the record for a UCE here in the USA, or anywhere?

Singh Ji, well done, congrats!
What are your thoughts on de-coking? Have you done it yet? I'm assuming you haven't, seeing that you didn't post any video/topic about it
This must mean that your bike's engine is still in great nick!

Nice one Singh! And very reassuring...
There was a time I was snapping at your heels, but I'm never going to catch you now! I'm still loving the ride on mine, but it's the W650 which does the long rides these days. That said, the Enfield is still my first love and will be the one which stays. These old bones are already letting me know......
