How many miles do you think you would've had if you didnt get flooded out in the beginning of the riding season?

Well let's see. This bike was purchased the first of March. I bought my last one November 15th. I traded it in with 5000 miles and it had 25 on it when I bought it. My current bike had 5 miles when I bought it. I figured about 7000. My life miles is about 60,000. Very low. I hope to make that up in the next few years.

I'm hoping to hit the 1million miles before I die. That would be cool.

I gotta tell you. I could trade my bike for a Dyna or a Softail, But I just love the rush I get blasting the throttle on the Sportie. It's just a fun bike to ride.

ditto - I love riding the Sporty. IMO, it the most FUN bike you can ride at somewhat legal speeds!

I will agree with you I have a road glide and it has been sitting all summer, I picked up a 1200 custom a month ago and have been riding it all the time, its a fun little bike.
