Average Miles Per Year?
Thinking about a Ultra, but the ones I see on the road aren't being ridden many miles. Why is that?
I ride between 25-30,000 miles a year. What would be my maintenance cost for that year? Yes, I am a pretty good wrench and can read a service manual! LOL...
How many of you put 25-30,000 a year on your H-D's? Most of the people I see don't put 5,000 miles a year on them. [:@] How many of you do 800 mile days on a regular basis?
TIA.....

Picked up my 05 Ultra June 23rd. Got 9,000 on her so far. Expecting snow Monday. If not I'll ride her some more.
Factory Maintenance is expensive. Check out the DVD at FixMyHog.com. It'll save you a lot if you can do your own.
Ride on Bro!

Some of you guys have alot of time on your side, good for you!
8000 + in 6 months here, my goal is 10,000 before the salt hits the street, then its time for wrench'in.
I have done a 2000 mile weekend, 950 in a day getting home in time for work on monday, and I'll do it again!
Coming from a Sportster I never thought I'd ride more than 250 miles a day, Baggers Rock! [sm=icon_rock.gif]
