South West Bikers | Motorcycle Forum

Ive had my CBR600 for a year and done around 13,000 miles and its not my main mode of transport. My 400 i had for a few years and put on over 30,000 km.

I usually get in a few holidays down the south west of France in a year which adds a bit but having a look at other bikes of that model my mileage is already more than most i see. It doesn't bother me, because id rather be riding than it sat in the garage for the occasional Sunday blast. Just surprised as so many seem to have such low mileages.

What sort of mileages do you all do

Well....My CBR600(91) had 47.000 on it when i bought it...just clocked 50.000 recently and still stonking!!

Done about 2k in 3 months of ownership, so translates to 8k a year if it stayed the same. Its 95% pleasure, not commuting, so lets hope I can keep it below 5k or so for insurance purposes.

Just checked mine and last June when I got it MOT'd it had 12,500 on it, now it has 19,000, so that's 6,500 in just over 10 months , good job I upped my mileage limit on my insurance ....

Must be all these rideouts I keep going on

ive done just over a 1,000 miles

mine is about 50270 now. was around 46k when i got it 8-9 months ago

got my CBR last september with 19000 on the clock it now has 26000

got 2 other bikes i could use but not as much fun!!!

soon be on the third cam chain tentioner!!!

Mine is 250 now.

Was 43 miles when I started riding it on Wednesday.

Got my 600 mile service booked for next Thurs, but at this rate I will be waaaay over that especially with the rideout tomorrow being about 200 miles in total for me.

had since mid march done 1,500

Bought mine in April last year with 38,000 miles on the clock.
It's now done 49,000 !!!!

It's just about run in now

I used to do about 10-15k a year, But now down quite a bit on that, thank god.

I've done 3,500miles since since Oct, Thats just under 16,000 on the ZX6R now.

Done about 0-22,500kms on the RS125, 18,000-48,000kms on the NC30, 12,000-22,500 miles on the GSXR750.

I do approx 3000 miles in 5 weeks...

Hence I got the TL...needed something that could take the miles..but still offer performance

That mileage isn't always that high...done alot of motorway miles lately....

Fun riding about all yr when on my 400...did about 10k miles a yr

these days I only do about 3000 miles a year. I wish I had more time to get out on my bike but these days theres always something getting in the way.

Somehow I managed to rack up anther 350 miles over the weekend, i always take the longest root over to mates houses is my excuse.


Actually I'm not married I don't need an excuse
