How many miles did you put on in 2016?

[JackB]

I stopped riding 2 weeks ago because of cold and snow like most of us.
I put 9,800 miles on for the year.

[BACA]

[Bighutch14]

8400 glorious miles!

[speedjunkie]

A little over 5K on the B, a little over 5K on the RGU, a little over 1k on the FLT, and close to 2k on the FXEF. Hopefully add a few more miles to the B this week and next, roads are pretty well clear after the weekend snow, and it's supposed to be in the 40's.

Did 11,420 miles, on the B. However, also, ride another bike (dual-sport). But now, like BigHutch and JackB, The B is stored for winter. The ice ice getting strong now, on our lakes and rivers, almost time for the Dual- sport to chase or beat the snowmobiles. The B will cry, when the other bike goes out to play! Gotta do something in these cold-ass winter states.

[Sorcerer]

5,000 on my Black 13 before I totaled it on June4.It took month and a half for the insurance to pay off on the 13. Replacement came home July16. July 17 my on all partner went out on medical leve till the week of Thanksgiving. Only managed a nother 5,000 miles. Last year was 17,000+.

[BobR]

21K in the last 18 months.

[stroguy]

Almost made 10K this year. Still have 10 days and several rides to work and back. Should make it to 10K.

[opas ride]

With some major health issues in early spring, family business, some lousy MI weather, etc. only put on about 3800 miles in 2016...Planning trip to Oklahoma and other Northern Mich sites next year so we'll see.....Ride safe

I saw 2 snowmobiles running the river today it wasn't frozen a week or so ago. But we did have a few very cold nights.

[lake_carl]

Just got my b in July, I normally work every weekend so solo riding short trips is my norm just around 7500

[3Chief]

I worked pretty much 6 days a week all year so only 7K or so. I'm off on another TDY and my B is nowhere near to check...:icon_frown:

[wjduke]

Over 22,000 and that's including two partial winters. I haven't ridden in two or three weeks, and last winter I rode sporadically, only when able. I killed it during the year.

She's almost totally stock too...shield, Rivco pegs, and grip puppies were the only "comfort" adds. Perfect as is for me.

[willtill]

Not enough. :icon_frown:

[wjduke]

So far, running year round with warmer temps, doesn't necessarily equate to more riding.

[Allen Framen]

JackB's question fired up a host of pleasurable memories. I rode well over 30,000 miles in 2016 thanks to a dream ride of 7 weeks and 17,000 miles. I was able to ride in some of the most beautiful areas of the U.S. - areas that I had never seen before. It's been a great riding year.

Bought Vanessa August 5th and put 10167 on!

Ya, those guys are a little crazy. They run the rivers here, and zoom over the open water spots. Sounds like a cold way to die, if they don't make it. I will ride the lakes, but I wait until the ice is good and thick.

[seadog]

I stopped riding 2 weeks ago because of cold and snow like most of us.
I put 9,800 miles on for the year.

Now the bike has over 16000 miles so it was a good years ride for sure and even got 160 mile ride in the middle of November and that's almost unheard of in Michigan.

[pilotguy299]

i bought my 2016D on March 3rd, and she has 12,557 on her as of last week.

[DTOM]

around 9200 on the GL before I sold it. 2500 on the B before hibernation set in. Can't wait for Spring...ugh

That is why we ride and is truly awesome!
Well written, sir!

[cruzdog954]

Got the F6B in March and got 8,000 in. I tried to take out miles like Ferris Bueller, but did not work.

[Bill_C]

Approximately 3,500 miles this year, not as many as I'd like but I really enjoyed them.

[prentiss213]

Miss my bike already as it sits in the shop in Peperell getting new tires. Can't wait for Spring to kill those tires on NH curves.

[CopperMike]

Not enough!

[gregj]

Almost 18K miles, since March when I picked it up. 'gw-smiley'

[DMAGOLDRDR]

a tad over 12,000 mi on the F6B and only 4,000 mi on the Old Wing which is about normal for me.

But now that it is snow season I may get a few miles on the sidecar.

[billsim]

I put about 8,400 miles on my F6B this year which is way more than I ever put on my previous bike. Had 14,000 miles on the HD Sportster after 12 years before I traded it for the F6B. This bike is a lot more fun to ride.....:icon_biggrin:

[glryder98]

Way to go Allen!! I have 22,841 miles as of today. 1 more ride and I will break the 23,000 mile mark for the year. Love the B.

[copper]

about 10,000 kms (6000 miles) between purchasing the F6B in May, & putting it away for the winter in November.

[wjduke]

Way to go Allen!! I have 22,841 miles as of today. 1 more ride and I will break the 23,000 mile mark for the year. Love the B.

This is what I expected to see more of...good going :yes:

[Dirtstiff's F6B]

About 8K, mostly on our annual Rocky Mountain trip and a few Oregon juants.
Not nearly enough, though.

Dam thing called a job keeps getting in my way..

Happy Holiday

Thanks! I drove through Pickens last month on my way to Lake Keowee for Thanksgiving. I'll be looking for an opportunity to get back that way on the F6B after winter subsides. The mountains are calling!

[pitcherd]

I road about 7,500 miles. Wishing that I had more time to ride the bike, but I have worked a lot this year.

[Craig_328]

21K in the last 18 months.

There are only 12 months in a year my friend....just saying...

[Craig_328]

purchased my bike Apr 12, 2016. Stopped 2 weeks ago. I put 5,200 on my bike (8 months)

[DarkKnt]

First year, 20k kms, 2nd year, 10k kms and this year, only about 5k kms!! No real travelling buddy's this year, work travel, took up with a great gal and the fact I now have 3 bikes to split the riding... No complaints though. This summer we've got several long trips in the works, leading up to 2 months in Europe summer of 2018.

[Kolsch]

I did 15,500 miles. Had some great rides, I would like to thank- TAZ,WILL,PETE,DIRTSTIFF,COOPER MIKE. Thanks guys for the great rides. I can't wait until spring time!!:)

[JBnAZ]

Around 5K this year, that's my yearly avg. 1500 on my rzr xp 1K. Will put another 30 or so on today!

[VStarRider]

8,500...by far, the most seasonal miles ever. 7,800 went on the F6B; 500 on VStar; 200 on rental Indian.

I live in upstate NY, which typically equates to a 6-7 month riding season. This year was extended slightly due to a mild 15-16 winter and a warm 2016 fall.

I never thought I would ride 8,500 miles in one season. I hit 6,800 last year and thought that was an aberration. I've been doing more and more pleasure riding now that I have a comfortable touring bike with tunes.

[53driver]

Not finished yet.....I'll revisit this post on 31 Dec.....

Just put the bike away...the final tally is in.... 25,079 miles for 2016 on Isleen.
Another 2,378 on Saorla.

Happy New Year to all!

[JMartin]

186

Yup, a whopping total of One Hundred and Eighty Six miles in 2016!!!

Just got my bike yesterday and took it for a ride on the last day of the year.
(Just wait till next year!)

[stroguy]

Almost made 10K this year. Still have 10 days and several rides to work and back. Should make it to 10K.

I didn't make it. So ashamed, so close.

[53driver]

I just got a Happy New Year's wish from GaTeach.
Plus she was gloating.....37.9k miles in 2016.
...damn...

I asked her to never text me again.....lol

[StonedInNy]

Picked up my B late Oct. put 2600 miles on it before she went to sleep for the winter.

[Bob Penn]

One set of tires worth or approximately 14k. Checked the back tire out and scared the hell out of myself! Did you know our tires are held together by string.:shhh:

YES!!!!
My last 'stone at 18.2k:
4619462046214622

At least it was wearing fairly consistently all around....
That was four pictures taken at the same moment I realized my next stop was the tire store.

[sshake1905]

2015....in 6 months, from mid April through September.............16,000 miles

2016....fair weather riding ....April through September.........only 12,000 miles

Just replaced original air filter at 28,000 in October before I put her away for the winter.....can't wait til spring is sprung !!!

[tpa]

i put over 13k on my 2013 last year - and i'm from MN where the riding season is short! i covered a lot of the US and Ontario last year. i've got my sights set on diving deeper south and further west after the snow melts.

[rider33]

I average about 10-15,000 miles a year across multiple bikes. Half of that tends to be touring, the rest just screwing around. Treads like this make me think the F6B just might right up my alley.'riding'

[Sonny]

I did 4200 on the superglide before I sold it, and 10500 on the f6b. I bought the f6 in march of 2016.

[Casper96]

well seeing as I bought mine in late sept and it was a weird month...I think the odometer has 1160(something)....

[Baboone]

Only two miles ! (World record in progress)

and it was because my bottle of Jack Daniels was empty each time ... :icon_mrgreen:

[beppok]

From Mn. so my riding season is relatively short but I managed to put 17,200 on the F6B and 100 miles on the Harley. Hmm might be time to sell the Harley.
