I have finally added all of the current radicals, kanji, and vocab to my queue. I will have no more lessons until I get to full burn and reset.
Hope to achieve the full burn sometime this year.

Congrats! I just started recently. I canāt even imagine getting to level 60. I take it thatās the cap for now? How often is new content added? Not that I think I need to worry about that anytime soon though haha

New content is added when they feel the need, not at any specific interval.
60 has been the cap since I started 4 years ago. It was 50 sometime before that.
They have no plans on adding more levels, if new items are added it will be included in the current levels.

Welcome 
Lately, new kanji/words have been every few months. Updates are more often, however. We also get some weekly updates with small fixes (adding new meanings to the current items, fixing typos, etc).
Congratz @vogelokinawa! If you want to burn them fast, my advice is to use the self-study script to work on your leeches 
After a few months of reaching level 60, the items that will be left will be the most troubling ones, so itās good to start working on them as early as possible.
Have you achieved the full burn?

Oooh! Canāt imagine how that feels.
If I may ask, how long did it take you?

Hmm, Iād say a few months to burn the majority of themā¦ but then I procrastinated on doing extra study for my leeches, and that postponed the whole thing 1 more year (pretty annoying, do your self-study guys!). Wanikani also kept adding new items after that (it takes 6 months to burn an item, assuming all reviews get answered correctly), so in total it was around 2 years and a few months to get 100% burned.

New content is usually added to the existing levels. And the lessons for any new item added below your level, will automatically be added to your lesson pile.
Ah, I see. Thatās really nifty actually.

Thatās great! 
Iām almost there myself. 
I donāt know when I will burn everything, but at least I hope to see the diminishment of my daily review pile.

Iām working on the same thing, good luck to both of us <3
Wow!
Meanwhile here I am with my disgusting dashboard- so many leeches, 0 burns, lesson backlog (I do 5 a day for now, sometimes 10), and still a number of apprentice items (just recently got it down from 100+)
If it makes you feel better, I had over 300 Apprentice items at the peak.

I donāt think Iāve hit 300, but Iāve definitly hit like 295ā¦
Your dashboard is not disgusting, looks perfectly normal to me It takes a minimum of 6 months to burn an item, assuming one gets all the reviews done on time and answered correctly. So of course you have none. Plus, the reviews donāt need to be done all at once. I had a ābacklogā of reviews for 6 days a week while I was leveling up.
In case you havenāt read my guide for Wanikani, please do so. Iām sure youāll get lots of good info (Read mainly chapters 1 to 8).
