I know some GWs go high mileage but this F6B has not been out that long. Who has some big miles and how many have you logged? I'm a measly 17K.

No one has hit 100K yet, but there are two forum members I know of above 60k.
I'm at 52k.

I just turned 70,500 on my 2013. Hopefully 100,000 in 2 more years
70 plus. That is pretty high. Mostly trouble free I hope.
I will roll over to a mere 10k sometime this week. No rush to spin up the odometer for me. I ride when I want to/feel like it.
It will be beautiful here all week...yet, I will probably only ride to work once or twice.
One of the reasons I bought this bike is that I could keep it 20 years and it will still be in good shape if I maintain it and keep it out of the sun for long stretches (one of the reasons I do not ride it to work every day, plus it is a pain in the ass).
I have a feeling this bike will age well (from a style and mechanical perspective).
A redesigned Gold Wing that doesn't look like a slightly modernized 80s touring bike with cruise, ABS, modern stereo, and lots of adjustability for comfort might get me to make a move.

I do more miles than you....so far, but I don't see myself setting any records, not in this area of the country. I see this as my last bike....it should outlast me if I take care of it! Slow start because of weather this year, but as of this week, I should start ramping it up. A family graduation this weekend will delay me a bit, but I can't wait to roll out steadily.

Yes darkside rear and Rostra cruise control. Cost for cruise is about 350 - 400.00. Add another hundred if you use goldwing right side control to look like factory.
