Re: How many miles on your bike?
8000. I've been wondering this too because this is used more as a starter bike than something a longtime biker goes out and gets. I got mine in sept 2011 with 3400 and it's a 2001 so I doubled the mileage of the first 10 years in 6 months. I take riding seriously and by the responses of a few of you it looks like you take it seriously too. I've thought about upgrading to a bigger bike *gasp* because I love highway riding but I've done a couple of 3+ hour rides so I think this little puppy will keep up with me for a while. Something I learned about the California Highway Patrol is they buy Harleys new, run them in service for 40k miles and no matter what pull them off the road, rebuild the top end, then use them to the 80k mile mark in training and parades and non-highway harassment things and then auction them off after 80k. So if I get to even 40k before my engine blows I'll call it a success on a bike I bought for $900 bucks
