9,000k in 7 months, I dont think I will catch you but I am trying very hard. | ||
| Brucelee |
What is your maintenance schedule, fluids used etc. 40K is good stuff. Total problems with bike? | ||
| Tucsonxb9s  |
Ski...you are a sick, sick man. I'm STILL 30K behind you! | ||
| Kandie |
I have 42,616! Most of the last 5000 was in rain or hail. | ||
| Cataract2 |
1775 now. I'm working on it guys. Don't wait up. BTW XB9rski, other than oil leaks how's the engine done? | ||
| Gschuette  |
hey Brucelee check out his profile. He has quite a bit of info in there. | ||
| Xb9rski |
Kandie, Is that on an XB though?? And yes please read profile, I have listed all problems in there. I do my own scheduled maintenance every 2500. "Ride it till it seizes" Ski | ||

I've turned in 12,260 since 10/2/03 (14 months). At Ray Price we have a customer who recently brought his '04 FLHTC in for service with ~24k miles on the clock. I thought that was respectable mileage for an '04, so I decided to look up his purchase date. As it turns out, he purchased the bike 6/24/04- less than six months ago. At that rate he'll break 50k miles inside of the first year. | ||

Boy, xb9rski, seems like your bike has LOTS of problems, you think? Hope that is not typical of Buell. | ||
| Xb9rski |
Hkwan, I really don't think that I've had too many problems considering if you put it into perspective, that I have about 20 yrs of mileage on it according to the general populous. "Ride it till it seizes" Ski | ||

Ski, no that's on my FXR2. Still, I've been able to see 31 states so far on two wheels! Even though it hasn't been on a Buell I have a lot of great memories and a few not so great. Most of those miles were with my favorite hippie Buell salesman if that counts for anything!! | ||
| Sparky  |
90084 on '96S1, 30142 on '03XBR & 50124 on '98S3. Miles of smiles, Sparky | ||

Darryl, I want your job, I wish I had that much time to ride that many miles. Oh wait.. in two years I will have all kinds of time.....RETIRED....LOL "Ride it till it seizes" Ski | ||

Thats some great mileage on the bikes! Had 29,900 on my old XB9R before it got totaled in late sept. Only two problems the oil lines rubbed and a rotor issue. The bike was great to me and I believe the next one will be also. I hope to keep up with you high mileage riders. Keep it up Ski and Sparky. I had less than 500 miles on interstate hwy. the rest in the mountains, on back roads, and small two lane rds. I can't wait to start putting miles on the new bike. The most miles in one day was Glitch and I put about 675 in one day no Interstate Hwy. Ouch on the rump! | ||
| Cataract2 |
How does 1800 miles in 3 weeks sound? (Bought it 3 weeks ago...) | ||
| Xb9rski |
Not Bad Cataract2, When I was still stationed in Cali, I was doing over 3900 in 3 weeks. "Ride it till it seizes" Ski | ||

Glitch, Only about another 2k before you have to worry about a new engine...J/K Hope you don't have to go through what I went through. "Ride it till it seizes" Ski | ||
| Glitch |
Only about another 2k before you have to worry about a new engine Think I should just park it now, and trade it in before it happens?  Sweet profile picture! Looks like we like the same kind of riding. | ||
| Xb9rski |
Anything with twisties Bro. | ||

 It's the only way!  | ||

Glitch, that's torture for us East Coast Florida folks. | ||

13717 as of last night with 7 months of ride time on the bike. | ||
| Glitch |
Cataract, I'm just north of ya'll. Come on up this next season, the 3%ers will show you all the killer roads not so well known to anyone other than the locals. Wycked, that's it, you're gonna beat me to 40 by the time you get to 18 months! | ||
| Xb9rski |
I might have to come visit one of these days, just to test the roads for your safety of course...LOL "Ride it till it seizes" Ski | ||

Safety first! | ||

Here I was pretty proud of the 84K I've put on my Valk until I saw Sparky's post. Darn you! 170K on 3 Buells is awfully impressive.  Of course, now that you all have infected me with the Buellbug, my Valk may never see 100K. |
