Sounds like the real bikers get all up in a wad what someone else does to their ride. Enjoy the Willie G skulls and keep blipping your throttle.

Are you with the mileage police?

They "Live To Ride" around the block or to the local pub on Bike night. I am sure the oil was changed regularly at the dealer and and the tires were replaced @ 4K because they were weather rotted

I used to average 5k miles a year which isn’t astounding. Now my 2015 SGS has 4900 on it which is probably a garage queen. I don’t claim to be or never have been LTR, but I’ve been doing it my entire life. The last few years I’ve had competing hobbies and life that conflict with riding. Plus, I’m not enthused to go out in GA in July when it’s 100 degrees and get on a 250 degree bike. I ride when I can and enjoy it.

The SGS is the first new Harley I bought, all others were garage queens a few years old. I searched within 500 miles willing to fly and ride when I bought the SGS, but couldn’t find one (2nd model year). I’ll always own and ride a Harley, just depends on how much I ride. I retire in 7 years when I’m 63 and will ride much more.

The State of California is. They demand accurate mileage reporting evey year, for every vehicle driven/ridden. They say it's "only for demographic purposes." But we know better...

If you really didn't you wouldn't have started this thread.

Just another "it's not what I do, so it's wrong" thread. Moving on ......

Yet another who either can’t read or comprehend what was read. I never said I cared about what you do or don’t do to your bike. I don’t care how much you ride or don’t ride your bike.

The post was merely to point to tbe to the irony that many of the low mileage bikes are covered with Live to Ride doodads.
