Re: The Mileage Thread
Time to relight this. Now I have a mile muncher, will probably rename 2015 soon. Looking to hit some good miles this year

Re: The Mileage Thread
II'll not go back to day one but I'll start with recent(ish) history / mileage.
FJ1200 3XW ('92): Purchased in Oct '09 and was on about 50000 when I had it, it's now approaching 97000 so it's averaged just less than 10K a year. Trips to the Nurburgring (twice), Switzerland, Italy, France and Spain included. it rarely stands still for more than 24 hrs.
VFR400 NC30 ('89): Puchased 1st time in '08 and had about 30000 Km on the clock. I started to use it in June '09 and continued to do so till May '10 when I was made an offer I couldn't refuse to sell. I think it it did about 6000 Km in this time. During that ownership, it didn't move until I bought it back in 2012 and then it took till '13 for me to sort it for use again. I ran it from Dec '13 until Aug '14 where it had a clash with a knob in a Corsa. As some will know, it'll be back on the road in August with the odo currently reading 42500 Km.
CX500 A ('80): Located and owned since '11 and has done a measly 8000 or so miles since. doesn't go or handle but it's oldskool cool as it used to be my dads.
So roughly 65 thousand miles since '09 giving an average of just over 10K per year..

Re: The Mileage Thread
Not exactly dispatcher mileage, but on my 5th Blade since 2000, and now covered over 250000 miles commuting in that time, before that I guess another 300000+ on a multitude of bikes, that's a lot of fecking rear tyres.

Re: The Mileage Thread
I'm using my Honda CBR 400 NC29...everyday to get to work....we have bus lanes and also I go to work at 6:30AM in the morning which has less traffic and is much safer.
I have done 2862 miles in 3 months....
