Passed 72,000 miles on 14 May 2017 - only problem was a failing kickstand kill switch causing random engine kills - that was a while back, there's a thread on here about it somewhere.
*Update* . . . after a lot of research, investigation, visiting and talking with people at the dealership in Sturgis - ends up I bought a 2016 F800GT yesterday (28, April 2017). It wasn't ready to take yet, I'll have to wait until next week, but then it'll have the saddle bags I wanted too...
