1981 GL1100 Innerstate("The Turd")SOLD!!, 1996 GL1500 Innerstate
I offishully have just a tad over 10,000 miles(10,034) on the 1500, as of today!!! :party:
Actually hit the magic mark when I pulled in the garage last night. Mostly trouble free miles, too, especially compared to The Turd. Super happy with this one.....I think I'll keep it. :BigGrin:

And YES...the tires are still good on both ends.... :cheeky:
:hihihi:
 
congrats and may the next 90,000 miles be trouble free as well :clapping:
I'm over the 100,000 mile mark on my 1500 wing, I've replaced the rear shocks and front springs along with fork seals. alternator and belts were replaced at the 70,000 mile time frame
 
I'm creeping up on 50,000 on this one...49,414 as of right now.... :BigGrin:
 
I've put over 15k on my Valkyrie in two years. (Yeah, I'm a little lazy). Again, trouble free. One of my closest riding partners is a longtime Valk and Goldwing rider. He has both. We've gone on a lot of over the road trips - both days and weeks. I've always found it funny that I have never seen him check his oil. He asked me a couple of times why I did.

I didn't have an answer.
 
:clapping: :clapping:

Ol gal rolled over to 50,000 miles this merning on the way in to werk! About 13 miles into the ride, and I got to watch it roll. Neato! :BigGrin:
 
Good deal. I was kinda bummed when my Valk rolled to 50k. (53'ish now). Then I asked myself, "Why be bummed?" Resale tends to drop a bit once miles hit the high side of 50k, but there's still a LONG way to go - and I have no intention of selling.

Great milestone (and with the tires intact I assume)? :hihihi: :smilie_happy: sorry..... :oops:

:cheeky: :cheeky: :cheeky:

:hihihi:
 
Always wonder about the phobia regarding mileage (kilometers). Have over 80,000 Kms on my '08 1800 and pushing 140,000 Km on my '85 1200 LTD. Looking for some 500,000 Kms on both.

I lost track the mileage on mine after changing the speedo but it's well over 100k.

Talking about the speedometer, my new cable is making noise and I wonder how hard it would be to change the whole cluster to a fancy LED deal? Don't mean to hijack this.
 
It's birthday time!!! The green 1500 am ONE year old! :party: :hihihi:
Put a lot of miles on this one in a year....12,812.... close to DOUBLE the miles I could put on the 1100 in a year. Wouldn't trade it fer nuttin! :BigGrin:
