I'm passed 124k miles now!
Anybody else passed 100k at this point?
I need somebody else to start a 100k club!!!

How close are you, Ray! You got to be close!

If you add all three of my Raiders together... YES!   

Unfortunately I'm at exactly 10% of the miles you're at right now.

Keep putting on those miles!

    2 miles shy of 32K as of the ride home from SERR 2015.

      I bought my raider with 3400kms on it June 2014 and as of right now, she has 15,500kms. Not bad for less than 2 years of riding by me!

      That is a bunch of riding for your location in the world.  When I was living in MA and ME, a 3000 mile year was huge, but I hated freezing.  Summer nights were sometimes too cold for me.

      Ride safe...peace.

      I can usually ride from middle March or beginning of April until beginning of November. Beginning of Spring and end of Autumn can be pretty chilly. Averaging about 1000-1050 miles a month at the moment. Most of my riding is a 56 mile round trip to and from work whenever I can. My good buddy and I will put anywhere from 300-500 miles on in a day when we go out riding on a weekend. I'd like to be able to hit the 10k per year mark but around this area it's hard. Plus, life obligations also do not always allow me to get out when I would like.
      Ride safe and strong and enjoy that beautiful FL sunshine! :)

      Thanks Teleman. It's not much compared to some of the riders on here who have some incredible seat time but it's pretty decent for this area of the country.
      You really got some good seat time yourself. 7500+ miles since last June is awesome!

      Went past 125k miles on my trusty steed this weekend and should be past 126k next weekend, which means an average of 18k miles per year since I got it in March of 2008.
      Still running like a champ!
      Only issue is tranny noise in 3rd gear, but I had that since 70K.
      Have to take a look at that during the off season, if I have time.

      That's awesome!!!!! 
      I just hit the 18,000 mark last week. I bought my 09 with 9,000 on it about a year and a half ago. When I grow up, I wanna be like WolfRaider!!!!
