With proper maintenance, how many miles can I expect before having to get into the engine? 2005 Heritage

Thanks for any input.

 

I don't speak from experience, but what I have read at least 100K miles.

 

i dont know but i have seen people with over 120,000 miles. i have 50,000 in the last 2.5 years so in another 2.5 years i will let you know.

 

I'm sure this will be an interesting thread to watch. Also sure it has a lot to do with the rider and care. My cousin traded in a 94 Ultra with 94000 and no problems. Thanks for posting.

 

can't wait to hear everyones opinion on this one,good post

 

Well I started this thread 4/27/2010 I now have 60,000 miles on my 05 Heritage. I did install the cam chain tensioner upgrade kit because it seemed the right thing to do. Been using Amsoil for 50K miles in all chambers. She runs like a sewing machine so far. I perform all my own maintenance by the book every 5000 miles. My indie has a mechanic with 250K on his bike but she says it's pukin all over the place. :-)

 

This is probably the best thread resurrection I've seen so - the OP following up. Very cool. and glad the bike is running well.

 

well played, OP.

 

Well i'm up to 10,000 miles on my 07 Fatboy where DOES the time go ...... So if were all still alive by the law of averages i will post again in 54 years to give an update as it will have reached 100,000 miles ........

 

Good follow up on this thread. I have never had a bike long enough to put 50,000 miles on it. If I keep my Ultra a couple more years I may get there.
