27 years ago I was driving my old F350 back from Vegas with a ZRX11 in the back

Re: '95 ZX11-D3 & '99 ZRX11-C3 stuff
Moved the GPz11 & ZX11 around so I could get to the ZRX11. Parked GPz11 in the street, put the ZX11 in the usual GPZ11 parking spot in the garage, moved the ZRX11 to the middle of the garage & did an oil/filter change, 124,483 miles.
... which means the yearly average mileage on it is now 4600 miles.... & I didn't do anywhere near that last year. FFS. Half that mileage was done in the first 6 years. I only rode it 586 miles since June1st '25, which means I took it to the RockStore three times.
In my defense, the ZRX did have some enforced rest periods, the first in '05 when I got in the wreck & couldn't ride for many months, wrist fracture clusterfuckery, TKR surgery in '19, then wrist surgery.. so it probably sat for around a year in total, maybe 18 months.
... but still, piss poor riding commitment.
And it's been given more rest since the ZX11 arrived & even more now the GPz11 is here.
Jan: Gpz11
Feb: GPz11
March: ZX11
April: GPZ11
May: GPz11
Edit:
June: ZRX11
I've not ridden it this year at all, but that will change this afternoon. It fired right up today, unlike the ZX11 which was being it's usual recalcitrant self & required some attention from the battery tender. If I'd put it on the tender yesterday it would have fired right up today.
& having only ridden the GPz11 & ZX11 this year, which both have stock exhaust systems, I'd forgotten just how obnoxiously loud/pleasingly melodious the Muzzyfied ZRX11 is.

Re: '95 ZX11-D3 & '99 ZRX11-C3 stuff
ZRX11 oil/filter change, over due time wise, but not mileage. (124,667 as of this morning)
Had moved the ZX11 out of the garage to move the ZRX11 over, then the bugger wouldn't start & had to push it uphill back into the garage. It weighs a fucking ton & I may have strained my whoopah.
I REALLY need to sort out the ZX11 ignition switch. Key doesn't always make contact.
