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.

You need a 500,000 mi. or more category for this group. Seriously.

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

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!

What's he gonna do start riding his VTX for the next 7 months then start riding Ali again  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.
