Hey guys, I am just curious how many miles you guys are putting on your ride. I thought I was an average rider at 6,500. How about you?

'03 620..bought new 4/03.

I rode 98% of the time in East Valley of Phoenix until I moved from there..10/06  Bike had 56,000 miles!!   ;D  [cheeky]

Since then, I've lived in FL and WA..only 5,000 added.   :-\  due to no twisties in FL and rain in Seattle.

On the monster I've put a little over 11 K miles on 11 months, of which it has not been ridden at all for 2 months.

On the CBR I put a little over 10 thousand kilometers in about 15 months.

On the 996, a little over 600 miles in a week and a half  ;D

I did 16.5K miles since last July when I bought my first Monster. Lots of tires and lots of smiles.

And Rich does these miles by himself  :(  [moto]

Lets see here, 14k in a year and 5 months.....and with the weak fuel capacity on the Monster added to the pathetic fuel mileage of the aprilia I know I've kept some turd in Rolex's & caviar down @ Chevron..... >:( >:(

The question posed was: "How many miles do you ride in a year?" Where does the 17 months fit in G.A.? Either bad reading skills, bad math skills or both. For what its worth G.A., I just got bored riding in groups where I wasn't comfortable with the pace. It's much more fun to me to to go where I want, when I want. Maybe that'll change. But I don't ride because I feel I have something to prove, I ride because I love it and I like to explore the back roads. I did 16K the last 12 months and I went all over the place, including Deals Gap, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and 3 sisters 4 times. You guys are certainly faster, but for me, life's a long ride and I want to enjoy it.

I put 7 to 8,000 miles 9 months out of the year. I don't ride much in the summer...single parent  [bang].
