Your mileage
 
XTX - Easy E : 19924km

I've searched this forum regarding mileage information of member's bikes, but haven't found any. So I decided to start this thread.

Please post your current mileage as I've done for my bike above. Please copy and create a continous list. Just curious about your numbers, and also interested in finding out how much I can expect to get out of my bike, as I'm doing 15,000 a year.

:grouphug5:

Winner gets this: :winner:

WhiteYamBen 31-08-11 14:00

current is 8,941miles, in 11 months. my usual is about 10,000 a year.

uberthumper 31-08-11 14:55

XTZ - 26,100 ish miles and rising at about 12-14k a year.


Bike was registered in March '09, had 2,866 miles on it when I bought it in Jan 10 :D.

richardsracingmad 31-08-11 15:10

XTR- 6,100 fun miles in my first year..:toothy12:

Robbi 31-08-11 22:42

2006 XT660R 43,600m

jimmysimpson 01-09-11 00:07

My 60 plate Tenere has 9500 on it now.

Robbi (XT660R) 43,600 km (27,093 miles) :winner::YouRock:
uberthumper (XTZ) 41,995 km (26,100 miles)
Easy E (XTX) 19,924 km (12,381 miles)
jimmysimpson (XTZ) 15,286km (9,500 miles) - TBC

Keithblade (XTZ) 12,068 km (7,500 miles) � TBC
richardsracingmad (XTR) 9,815 km (6,100 miles)
Updated list. That wasn't too shabby for the first day. Thanks for all your responses. Well done! Feel free to correct and update your mileage. The member with the most mileage on his bike gets top honors. :icon_salut:And considering there are over 5,000 members in this forum I expect the list to grow.

Congratulations to Robbi who has taken the lead!! But uberthumper is a close 2nd. Stay tuned...:icon_scoot[1]:

richardsracingmad 01-09-11 10:51

This is a great idea and a bit of fun I know, but are you counting gross total mileage, or annual mileage on on average, say.?

If on an Annual average basis, Robbi would not be leading......

richardsracingmad 01-09-11 10:54

if you want the total highest mileage, a guy in Brasil, who's name escapes me, would be winning this I am sure! He has done over 100,000 mls, on rough looking roads too :- amazing!

Graham 01-09-11 11:17

My '93 Tenere had done 40,000 miles when I sold it (it had become surplus to requirements). It never let me down and was still going strong.

Just counting gross total mileage from current bikes of current members. I think it'll get too confusing if we add annual average. maybe that's something for a new thread...

And as you say, just a fun idea. But I'm interested in all mileages not just the higher ones. This hopefully will be a dynamic thread. which will keep changing and being updated over a longer period...

XT miles
 
Bought my 660R for a trans canada trip (from adventure boy of this parish),
Toured Canada and USA (including Labrador Highway) 15,000 miles in 7 weeks, no problems, no punctures, just oil+filters, chain, sprockets and tyres. Minor issues, after market exhaust lost a baffle, after market heated grips gave up, and extended screen cracked for having bag attached, amazing little bike,

Total now 18,000 miles, bought in December 2010 with 2,750 miles.

Robbi 01-09-11 20:43

you've got me down as 43600 km....it's 43600 MILES mate :)

Mileage
 
I bought afk40's last bike which now has 48000 miles on 2006 XT660R.It had previously been on a round the world trip.

RickM 09-09-11 12:58

March '09 XTZ-------86,520 miles

But.....a main bearing failed at just over 61,000 miles. Had bearings, crankshaft assy, piston and rings all changed under warranty. Ignition switch was well worn so my dealer got that replaced as well - which required a new ECU (because of immobiliser system).
So I'm not sure if my mileage qualifies for any awards!
However, no problems with gearbox and bike still has original clutch and clutch & throttle cables.
Modified the reg/rectifier by digging out the moulded in socket and wiring in a fly lead with appropriate connectors and repotted.

99.5% on road use (but plenty of potholes, curb hopping, speedbump/humpback bridge jumping :unibrow: :eusa_naughty::warning1:)

97-99% business use :sad7:
but hey, I get paid for riding a brilliant bike:icon_cheers::sunny::icon_cheers::coolsmiley:

:eusa_clap::eusa_clap:

As they say: :needpics[1]:


Being the anorak that I am, assuming 60mpg and going by recent prices, that would be about �3500 worth of fuel in the UK!!!


Easy E, to give greater kudos to Yamaha (and the relevent rider!) maybe the mileage should be for bikes that haven't had significant engine work???? Therefore, I'm disqualified!

UKbri 21-09-11 20:31

Just a few from the last 4 months out of the thousands I have. (not in order).

Do Pegasos count?
 
2007 Aprilia Pegaso (same motor, i.e. not the Rotax), 77,700km from new. Mostly road miles, but some gravel. Running better than ever. New fuel pump (from a BMW F650) is all that's worth mentioning. PowerCommander made it run real sweet.

  • dallas reached 65,000km
  • Frodo has clocked 77,700 km (48,280 miles), but on an Aprilia Pegaso, so cannot be listed. He gets a notable mention as xt660.com member though.
  • RickM's XT had some major engine work. However, the committee (of one :047:) decided to keep him on the list as it is still the same engine and chassis.
Updated list. badga enlisted for the first time with a respectable mileage, just in front of dangerous74! :eusa_dance:
Please keep posting your mileage and stay tuned... :icon_scoot[1]:
