Carl,

Our girl rolled 754K + today... She's holding up quite well, but her rider is starting to noticeably sag in all the wrong places!

I am praying for the day you reach 1,000,000 and hoping to attend the party to commemorate the event.

My '99 Interstate hit 112,000 miles on Sunday, then my '98 Tourer reached 180,000 on Monday. I rode my previous (2013) F6B 54,000 miles. I replaced it with a 2016 F6B which has over 61,000. Overall, that's nearly 400,000 on Honda flat six motorcycles.

In all those miles the only serious problems have been sheared clutch rivets and a rear wheel bearing failure, both on the '98 Tourer. I've never owned more reliable vehicles of any kind.

Got in a 360 mile ride today.  Was rolling at 6 am.   Pulled into the driveway this afternoon 2 miles short of 120,000.   Got back on the bike and rode down the street and back.   Now 120,002 miles

200,000 is a whole lot of miles on a motorcycle.  My hats off to ya.
Im too old to get to 200,000 miles but am gonna enjoy the ride as long as I can.

These Valkyries are amazing machines.  My wife has several times told me "you are getting old and if you plan to continue riding I think you need to go buy a new motorcycle."   I told her that no I really like my Valkyrie and it rides just like I like to ride.    Dont really want another type of bike.

Keith,

One mile at a time, my friend! It ain't the scorecard that matters, it's the breadth of the smile on your face! My guess is you've already equaled anything I've ever done... Congrats, sir!!!

I remember when you turned 100,000 on the way to  the Keystone  ride-in and mine just turned 25,000. ( 02 Std.)
It's now at 156 000.
