What? He can't make up his mind?

Which is it?

They wear out too quick or they cost too much?

Come on, make up your mind !!!!!!

i tryed telling him about the guys on this site and how much people ride now tell me how many miles are on your bike rite now

Sounds like an antagonist to me. Don't let others know where you tie your goat up. They'll get it.

RE: how many miles

Don't know which bike my friend owns but his has 270K. He just recently replaced the motor. Otherwise bike runs great and he uses it to travel from GA to FL all the time and anywhere else that suits him!

RE: how many miles

I'd rather think about the odometer racking up smiles instead of miles. I have 5200 on my Fatboy and 31,000 smiles on the Ultra. Ready for many many more smiles too!

RE: how many miles

The guy's living in the past What he says may have been true in the 1970s, but the new Twin Cams have 100,000 or more in them easy. I've got 22k in 15 months on mine and it feels like it's just broken in. Uses no oil, starts instantly when cold, pulls the hills like a mule on fire -- and it's stock as a rock.
