If the 30 makes him happy, O.K. It's that old rider verses non rider fight. My buddy that only rides twice a year is the happiest guy in the world when we get out, but he has kids, business, old folks, stupid sister, (sorry, but she is, and needs help), etc., etc. and when we ride he is a new man. Can't bug him for that.

Can't say I understand either, I love to ride as much as I can--more than some but less than others. I imagine your buddy could say the same thing. I agree with Scout, as long as he's happy, who cares? It is something you and I may not ever understand but it comes down to he rides the miles that makes him happy and I try to do the same.

I left out the fact that he dousnt ride much so he doesnt rack up a ton of miles on his 03 v-rod.Yet hes always ravin about how much he loves to ride?So its a mileage thing.

If I ever get to where I only ride that much, or little I think it would be best to rent or borrow a motorcycle.But then you couldn't say you own a Harley.

Or about 434 miles. (Kind of funny I'm on a bike with metric bolts but need American measurements) I'm not following, "How's that" about what?

Makes no sense to me what-so-ever. Either ride it or sell it.
