Daily Az. rider and avg is 20k+. Traded an 03 Roadking for an 07 Ultra...RK had 94K on her. Reckon it depends where you live and how you ride, but as others have said there are a whoop of low milage used one available.

Used to ride a lot more than do now,the reason is because that was all I had for toys.Now with the toys mother is converting me to the back yard.Gardening,and the like.Now may get up to 3500 miles a season,most of that is back and forth to work.

I think it depends on region, I'm in NC and I can ride every month. I got my Road King in Nov last year and I have 6754 miles on it now. Gotta love the south!

I average about 8-10 k a year, but I just changed jobs (a lot closer to home, and a company car) so I
may put a little less miles on this year.

I'm shooting for somewhere between 9-11K per year.

It definitely depends on region. I seem to be riding around 25K a year, and that's because I live in California and our rain isn't frozen. But I'm not sure I could do that in Minnesota. Or Canada.

I've done over 11k this year so far on my softail custom...a bud has under 500 on his super glide this year. Not like a car, lot of variables.

Depends on the bike to some degree. I had a 2006 Fatboy and put 7,000 miles on it 16 months. I traded it for a 2008 Ultra and did 10,000 in 7 months. Me and that bagger will easily do 14,000 to 15,000 by the time it is a year old.
