It's been a long time since I've been on this board, but I finally got a chance to bring the bike out. I couldn't believe the mileage on my old bike-- just over 4,600mi! I just wanted to see where that ranks on the list of lowest mileage tubers still out there. For reference, I've got a Molten Orange '99 M2 Cyclone with a black frame, black wheels, and an X1 chin spoiler.

I think Mike bought an S1 last year with less than 200 miles on it, never titled and he'd kept it that way best I know. Kinda hard to beat that one. |

I'm resurrecting a coworkers one-owner S2T right now. 7181. My S1W is in the 5k range I think, ice white pearl, white frame, white wheels. I'll have to check the odo tonight. Me ex-wife's (now mine) M2L is a hair over 3200. Volcano gray, black frame, silver (bare) wheels. |

Bought my '97 S3 with 1800 miles in 2008, it now has 3500 miles. I just take it out to raise hell once in a while. |

As nice as those bikes look on the wall... I feel kinda bad for them... just sitting there... Do the have a view of a road, seen other bikes being ridden or have they been kept isolated so they dont know what they are missing? |

I bought my '98 S1W last April with 2700 miles on it...made it to a little over 4k before winter hit and then so far this year I've managed to put 3 miles on it |

LOL @4000 miles. I did that under a month of buying my X1. What is wrong with you people? That craigslist one too. I have no idea. A few years back, I was in a shop having my old XLH fixed as usual and saw a VERY clean ironhead. I went over and it had 34 miles! less than a mile a year! What????? |

I have a 95 S2 that had 239 miles when bought at the same time as Mike's (Rkc00) S1. They were both at the same dealer. pics are hiding in the archives. just over 2300 on it now. It gets ridden just very seldom. if some one much more computer savvy than i could repost a pic(s) from the archives to here it would be nice. Thanks |

Sparky, did you just turn over to 100k in that photo? How is the odo all 0s and the trip meter has 64 miles on it? I'm almost at 20k on my M2, but I replaced my speedo at just over 10k, so it only reads 9700ish. |

jeez. I don't think I'll ever make it to that mileage! I guess it helps to have a year round riding season |
