April 2, 2007, 50,000km

Today I crossed the 50,000km mark, of which I did 38,000km myself. The bike is still running fine. Vibrates a bit, but not very disturbingly. Now I've got the Pan the XJ won't be necessary for touring, unless we go to Russia after all, then I won't use the expensive luxury bike. But this tour won't happen this year, and maybe never.
