To all those that say these guys with 100k trouble free miles are a rarity, I say BS. Many bikes are trouble free, they just don't see any attention. 100k miles of riding on one bike, that is awesome!
161,200 here on a 09 Ultra converted to 3 wheels in 2017 with a CSC kit.

I’m hoping to finally get 100K on my Heritage this year. I’m riding my RGU more these days than I ride the Heritage.

Sounds like you got a good one,I live in the Pacific NW but still managed 200,000 miles on my 2000 Electra Glide Classic in 20 years.
I've slowed down a bit in my old age but have 30,000 on my 2019 Electra so far.
