59,150

During a week in which I only use the bike for commuting and running errands, I’ll put on 150-180 miles. If I also do recreational riding or attend any moto events, that figure will jump up to 300-500 miles a week.

Over the past 2 years, I've averaged 700 miles per month. But when the weather lets me commute on my bike, it jumps up quickly cause I have a 110 mile RT commute.

My new SVS now has almost 400 miles on it.

My GS only has 2000 miles on it because I had issues with the title but I finally got tags for it. My Honda, the odometer flipped 11,000 miles ago so I think I have 30k or so on there I can't remember what it was when I started riding it. I usually average 300-400 a week between all my bikes.

My R1 has approx 22k miles. My bike previously had close to 20k (i only put 10k+ miles on it) and my first bike had well over 30k miles (most of which was put on in about 10 months) when we parted.

I haven't ridden my bike hardly at all in the past year. :( I hope to change that soon. :)

When it's not raining, I commute on my bike every day which ends up about 200 per week. Plus, I usually ride on the weekends a couple hundred miles, so that makes around 400 miles per week if everything is normal. Even with the horrible weather we've had here in northern California, I've still managed to put 1,500 miles on my new bike since I got it in mid February. I LOVE my new bike!!!

I have put all 41,200+ miles on my '02 R6 since I got in Nov. 2001... :thumbup:

The miles really started to pile up when I started my new job here on the Central Coast of Calif. I work at the power plant - and the access road alone is 7 miles one way!

Now that we live a bit closer, my commute is 40 miles RT... earlier it was 80 miles RT!

I don't ride on the street hardly at all any more - I don't find it near as satisifing as racing or doing a track day (and not worth the risk to make it so)... occassionally I'll take my newbie g/f's out for a ride - nice and mellow - and teach them a few things and help them get comfy with riding a m/c.. :thumbup:

I will admit - I love taking my bike to visit my parents or friends far away (400+miles away..) cuz I can make it in about 5 hours or less.. :rockon:

I have 41,000 on the R1150RT and 13,000 + on the F650GS Dakar. This is both bikes 2nd riding season. My RT to work was 110! But the price of maint was making that a bit hard to swallow when I could add all the miles for a trip and have way more fun. So I changed jobs!
Now I just put more miles on on trips and like it waaay more. Leaving for Deal's Gap this week. I will be gone 5 days. :thumbup:

I ride whenever the weather corporates. I only travel 1 mile to work currently. I ride anywhere between 150-200 miles on the weekends. When I bought my bike in Feb. it had 245 miles on it. In the last three weeks I've put on about 450 miles. I'm loving riding!

74,900

Week minimum is 350 miles if I only have to go to my office at the small campus.

If I make trips to the main campus then anywhere from 400 miles to 700 miles in a week.

All this is just Monday - Friday. On the weekend I will do anywhere from 0 - 400 miles or so.

Don't laugh, it's 6 years old and I just put it thru the 12k service. My round trip from work to home is six, yep count em, six miles. Poor thing doesn't get warmed up before I shut him down to sit in the sun all day!

In 4 years, I have just about 4K miles combined on the Ninja and Monster :( I don't hardly commute, although with these gas prices . . .
