Looking round bike dealers I'm always amazed ath low mileages I see on bikes. So how many miles have we done on our current bikes. Since buying mine in July 2016 I have done 7000 miles. It had 1500 miles on it when I bought it.
I have done appx 85,000 miles on all five to date the first and second accounting for 47,000 miles
About 73k miles on mine.
63k in 7 yrs now
Hi Guys,
ZR1400 owner here but we do share some genes. Currently on a 2012 Gen 2 with 45k. Prior to that a 2008 Gen 1 did 47k.
Same as Jim. 73k miles on mine bought new in Aug 2007.
Not accumulating any at the moment due to injured shoulder. :no:
Get well soon George.

Blimey George I would have hoped that you were moving towards a full recovery. .....I hope things begin to improve quickly
Us old 'uns just don't bounce like we used to :smiley:
Had my bike 4 weeks tomorrow, sitting on 2,354 miles at present.
Thanks guys.
I'm told it will up to 12 months before I'm fully recovered.
Hope to be able to ride in the spring.
Still hurts but can drive and back at work.

Wouldn't that be great if it were true. :punk:
I've had all of my bikes from new, fortunately I still have them but they have to share the love.
1983 Z1300 36,000 miles (1,100 miles per year)
2003 GSX1400 34,000 miles (2,400 miles per year)
2009 Z1000 9,000 miles (1,100 miles per year)
2017 GTR1400 6,500 miles (= about 8500 per year pro-rata!)
Although the individual mileages aren't that high I must spend a bit of time on the seat overall.
My other (currently crash damaged) bike is a 1989 GTR1000 that is at 193k miles. I bought it with 82k miles in 2001.
