How many miles on your bike?
People are always asking the following questions:
1.) Is Harley Reliable?
2.) How many miles is too many?
3.) When should I expect a major overhaul?
So please vote on your current mileage, and indicate when you had to perform a major overhaul of the engine, transmission, or other major driveline overhaul.

I guess it depends on how hard you ride and how good your PM is, like any other mechanical device. There are a ton of variables in the equation.

Just went over 8,000 miles this weekendafter just over a season and a half of riding (ok, say 1 and 3/4 for arguements sake) and still runs as good as the day I bought it. Actually, it runs BETTER than the day I bought it because of the Stage I upgrade..!!

RE: How many miles on your bike?
27000 miles on my bike since 8-5-05 with no problems at all. Bike has never been back to the dealer for any warranty work(not that I would take it to them anyhow).
I did the big bore motor work last year, but that was only because I wanted more power.
Synthetic oils in all 3 holes since 1000 mile service, and I would go anywheres on it.
