I am a new owner and absolutely in love with these fabulous machines.  I'm curious how many miles people rack up. I have heard all kinds of stories out of the BMW crowd. Lets see how we are doing as a group.

As the thread shown by RJ and started by Willow, 100,000 miles is easily obtainable with reasonable service.  coolsmiley

Bruce (DDT) just spent the weekend riding with the Colorado group. He said he's got over 490,000 now and will probably hit 500k by the next Inzane!

Misfit told me DDT replaced his speedometer more than once and was conservative on correcting for the new  odo readings and so the actual mileage is unknown but Damon thinks it's well over 500k now.  I was stunned to see that bike and hear of it's mileage.  A Harley guy rode with us up Pikes Peak was also stunned and was talking about getting a fat lady by the end of the day.
