    My last appointment with the stealership is coming up for 35,000 service. Anything I should be particularly mindful about before warranty expires???

    Thanks all!

    Check for any unusual brake noises/ operation from master cylinder & pump.

    This is so true, Good ol' Murphs law.

    My best buddy blew the motor on his ZX-14 a few hundred miles out of warranty and he got screwed, no good faith unfortunately…..some companies are better than others when it comes to stuff like this….

    But as can been seen in the many 200k, 300k club threads, there does not seem to be anything major that sticks out prior to the HV taking a dump due to very high miles besides reg and proper maintenance… maybe pop a new 12v battery in when you start seeing decrease in MPG..
