Picked up my used 05 FJR on Oct 18th with 1900 miles, have just over 2700 on it as of yesterday;

bought a 99 honda areo 1100 in April 05 with 11,400; it now has 22,700. The toughest day on my aero was that 500+ mile run from the fla panhandle to the blue ridge motorcycle campground in NC. Came to the conclusion I needed a real touring bike and settled on the fjr; the result: I could not be happier !! what a sweet ride!!

Damm I wish it was april and not oct!

Dude! Ride that thing south coast to Sacramento and we'll ride everyday through the winter. Hint: Firstgear Kilamanjaro Air. Good for hot or cold.

 
Yep, I,ll log in.......... 03-- 60,000plus........... Just runs and runs.I'm replacing all the bearings and seals this winter.So I can get another 60 out of her.....

 
As of 16 October 2005, I have 33313 completely trouble free miles on my non-ABS which was delivered on 14 July 2005 as a new bike
Ok, I'll play too...I don't have my FJR, YET (just placed my order yesterday), BUT~I did play the BMW MOA mileage contest and I logged 33,000 miles (trouble free) on my '04 1150RT between April 9th and October 9th of this year...Can't wait to see what I can do the the new bike!

L :D

 
question for bluedevil . with that kinda of mileage are you employed ?

answer to Zorkler: the sad part is that I am retired, which means that I don't work but at 66 I will quit riding much sooner then if I was not retired.

 
10900 on my '05, got it Aug 6 last year. Haven't done any road trips this year. (Too busy writing.) Next year I have to make up for it. ;)

Hi Lisa,

Mrs Skyway (Kristi) says Hi, the avatar picci gave you away. We met earlier this year at the Cal24, 2-up on our FJR. :) Also, congrats to Toby on finishing the IBR. B)
