eusa1 Posted July 7, 2010 #4 Posted July 7, 2010 i only have a little over 100k on my 2003:fatsmiley:
Red Rider Posted July 7, 2010 #5 Posted July 7, 2010 With just over 20,000 on my 2000 RSV I think its just getting broke in. :big-grin-emoticon:Got it used with only 15,000 on it. Seems like I've got a lot of riding do to..
starkruzen Posted July 7, 2010 Author #6 Posted July 7, 2010 I only have 13,400. It had 6200 when I bought it and I thought I put allot of miles on.
phertwo Posted July 7, 2010 #7 Posted July 7, 2010 I bought my 2005 RSTD 20,000 miles(32,000km) from a guy that didn't know much about the bike at all. He didn't know how long these bikes last and thought that it was almost half-way through its life. He was thinking that he wanted to sell it before the clutch goes soon and costs him big bucks. We're at 25,000 miles two months later and I'm still smiling.
Sylvester Posted July 7, 2010 #8 Posted July 7, 2010 2002 RSMV with 130,276 miles and running as good as ever and maybe better. Later in July I am having the seats and backrest recovered in brown leather with a new gel pad in the drivers saddle. The old gel pad is failing, since I am having tail bone problems.
skydoc_17 Posted July 7, 2010 #9 Posted July 7, 2010 Our 1986 First Gen. had 126,313 on it when it was "retired" by a careless driver in San Diego Ca. and the 1987 VR we have now has 84,803 and got 51 MPG this weekend on our trip from Pa. to New York. I am very pleased with the way our bike ran this weekend. Earl and Jean:thumbsup2:
dave_wells Posted July 7, 2010 #10 Posted July 7, 2010 I have 41,000 on my 06 The only trouble was a fuel replacement last year .. Other than that Miles and Miles of fun... Hey Earl, I am glad to see you riding ...
wirider Posted July 7, 2010 #11 Posted July 7, 2010 okay, who has the highest milage on their ride just added 4500 miles with trip to nw montana yellowstone
OB-1 Posted July 7, 2010 #12 Posted July 7, 2010 Only 40,000 on our 2006. Our only problem has been the rear shock which just failed and is presently being replaced under warrenty.
Kirby Posted July 7, 2010 #13 Posted July 7, 2010 My '09 has 25,000 miles on it and it's only 13 months young!! No problems so far.
M61A1MECH Posted July 7, 2010 #14 Posted July 7, 2010 I have got right at 40,000 miles on my 07, but Mr. T in Orlando had something north of 250,000 miles on his 99 when I saw him last in March at Bikeweek in Daytona.
Red Rider Posted July 8, 2010 #15 Posted July 8, 2010 I feel bad for my friends that have harleys, they wont get that kind of milage.
rlyons Posted July 8, 2010 #16 Posted July 8, 2010 Gee my 2000 MM is still a baby with 6840 miles on it. Of course it won't stay that way long now that I own it.
