RE: Miles
I had a 07 street bob, put over 5500 miles on it. Traded for a 07 wide glide, got 10,000 miles on it, It has been 1 year.
My buddy had a 96 WG, had 30,000 on it. he just traded it for a 99 EGU with 5000 miles on it that his wife wanted.
Some folks just have their priorities in their life different.
Seen a 3 yr old American Iron Horse motorcycle the other day with about 600 miles on it that was traded in. I freaked out. Charles said a 60 yr old man owned it. Its up for sale.

RE: Miles
Some of usfolks have jobs, families, lives other than riding but we still enjoy it. I usually put about 8,000 miles a year on my bike and my wife almost 3/4ths as much on hers, mainly because I use my bike to get to work and she doesn't.
