Congrats man! Enjoy it.

I had 500 in my first four days but slowed down and only have 1,500 in two months.

Unless we have a bad winter this year, I hope I won't need to put the bike away. I did put 700+ miles on the bike over a 4 day stretch this week riding throughout Central PA. I wanted to get nice ride in while the weather holds out. Although, I did ride all day in the rain on Wednesday.

I picked up my '07 1200C about 6 weeks ago with 2800 miles on the dial. Only put a little under 2000 miles on it since. Including this week. It ran like a top. Even got a high of 45 mpg on the slab.
