Cool Mileage in Kilometers and not a metric

Well, I bought my Sporty 1200 June 9th, since then I have 24,000 KM on the meter, I guess that turns into 15K miles.

In comparison, my GMC got 5000 for the year.

I figure I'll put on about 32K miles per year (wish I could of bought a road king but at 350,000 NIS (New Israeli Shekels(divide by 3.5 for a $ value)) it was just too expensive.

Almost exactly 7k per year for the last 3 years (just started riding again after the kids finished college). Works out to a new rear every year, new front every other year.

Like previous posters . was scrambling to hit 5k on my truck in a years time. I work at home though so pretty much all of my riding is pleasure riding.

I don't think low mileage makes one a RUB any more than a lot of miles makes anyone a biker.
