06 XL1200C- 175,000 kms (105,000 miles). The Engine has never let me down. I've replaced all the wheel,swing arm & steering bearings. Replaced the clutch pack and stator. Converted to chain drive because winter riding destroys belts and aluminum pulleys.

I've got about 17K on my 07 1200 Low and I've owned it since new, no problems yet.

Don't know if it qualifies, but my 75 XLCH 1000 has a little over 30K on it and no problems yet.

Default 84,460 miles

Only minor repairs have been needed:
  • Front Master Cylinder rebuilt
  • Front brake light switch replaced (probably due to brake fluid leaking on above repair)
  • final driver belt broke at 82,000
  • on 5th set of tires
  • on 3rd battery
  • enricher **** and cable replaced
  • just have to change oil every 5,000 miles and tighten bolts periodically
Decided I might want to trade fo another bike a few weeks back. I went to the H Dealer and looked around, but could not find anything that was to my liking (at least not enought to take on a payment) then when I walked out, there were 4 people standing around my bike, when I asked if there was a problem with it, one of the guys said they were just admiring it. There's my sign.
