how many miles

justwondering, how much mileage does everyboby has? I've seenone 95 Electra with 95000 miles. Just wondering if the new 96 will go the distance... I hat to say it but I've seen goldwings with over 200000 miles and still running oil tight and good...

RE: how many miles

Brand new '08 about three weeks ago...just about 600...no leaks yet...HAHAHAHA ;-)

Why worry about all of that? Take good care of your bike, and you shouldn't have a problem. Gaskets, fluids, and minor parts are easy to change out...It's when you letnoises, leaks, shakes,fluid changes, etc.go too long that things start to fail...Believe me, I work on 48 year old aircraft...Machines are machines are machines!

RE: how many miles

I'm going to sound like a puss, but my '06 only has 5000 miles on it. I live in Ohio which I know is no excuse, but also, I'm lazy.

RE: how many miles

I met the man who owns the bike with the world record for most miles on a single bike the previous bike was a BMW. His name was Dave Zien and he had a FXRT with over600,000 in 2003 that was the last I heard of him. He probablyhas many more buy now.
