Right now I'm doing about 300 miles a week, so doing the math it will be about 15k per year.

I'm a real bad *** ...1500 to 2000 a season. I have a lot going on in my life and with only working 3 to 4 day a week and spending all our free time at the lake it sure doesn't leave much time for riding.

With both of my Sportsters & my Night Train, I was only averaging about 1500-2000 a year. Which always surprised me, as I ride a lot, but I guess I just don't go that far.

But then I got my Street Glide and had 1500 in less than 2 months, before the nasty weather hit. Go fig.
But then, the whole point of getting a SG was that no matter how cool the NT was and how much I loved it, it got uncomfortable to ride after about 30 minutes or so. (The stock Badlander seat sucks, but couldn't find a comfortable seat that looked good on the bike).

8 to 12K in 7 or 8 months, try to get out for at least an hour everyday after work. Like to take more longer rides, but life keeps getting in the way.

Averaged around 12,000 miles a year for the last 40 years. Has a couple years of over 20,000 miles, maybe one under 8,000. I retire next spring, and I hope to put on around 25,000 miles a year for a few years after that.
