FJR Mileage Milestones

[SkooterG]

Way back in August I hit this milestone on my 2004 FJR returning from NAFO.



I bought the FJR with 5945 miles on it back in 2006 so I have now put 150k on it myself. Woo-hoo!

F'd up software says I'm out of likes for the day when I haven't even used any today.

This thread is all about those FJR Pilots who RIDE!!!! So post up, and I'll add you to the list.

Blue=highest mileage for a model year of FJR. Actual mileage will be listed. Red=That FJR is no longer with us.

(BTW, proper protocol dictates that whenever another FJR rider is in the presence of the top rider on the list, they are to buy him a beverage of the Top Dog's choice!)

I just cleared 100K miles on my 2013 FJR. Mix of commuting (thanks, HOV) and fun rides with a few iron butt days thrown in. I've had no issues with the bike, aside from rough warm idle due to neglected TBS (so my bad, not the bike). Looking forward to the next 100K!

 

[Mount Rainier]

Purchased in 2009 with 700 miles on the ODO. Marvelous Machine!

Keep Going!

 

[Fontanaman]

I have 77,000 miles on my 09. I will ride it until it croak so it has at least a 100k left in it.

 

[The Gray Ghost]

this is for the bike turning the big 200k! 51367 isn't mine. butttt, with the miles I had on the previous bike, I turned 200,000 miles, by Nov.1, 2016. The bike is now in the shop for the winter for service, with 205,155 on it. I set a new personal record this year of 76,728 miles, and that gives me 153,788, I've put on the new bike, since Oct. 2014. My photo on the side of my speedometer is what I was going from.

That's an average of over 210 miles per day a year. Don't you ever sleep? I need some of whatever your taking please!!!!

I bet that is more than SkooterG rode this year...

 

[TomInPA]

Even more amazing, he never leaves the State of Ohio. It's gotta be hard riding that many miles on long, straight, boring roads!

Well done!

 

[briangs]

My 2004 FJR. This is the latest odometer pic. I have, but I'm now a little over 252,000.

I can't seem to get the pic to show up. Here's a link to it on the fjrowners forum.

^^^ the list up there: I sold my 2005 this spring with 116,XXX miles on it. It lives in western Mass now at my brother's place. Therefore I get to see it and touch it sometimes. Still runs great, of course.

[Bill Lumberg]

I just broke 40K. Should've been 50. Will be by spring.... That'll be halfway to what I intend to put on it before passing it on to the next owner.

Where I ride is in southern Ohio for the most part and it's anything but straight and boring, that's why I ride down there in the winding hilly roads. By the way you do know I"m originally from Covington, Pa.
