Rolled past the 150,000 mark on my 08 this year. Was headed back to VA from a trip to Boston.

Awesome riding all of you! I just fipped 128,000 on my 09 bought new in June of 2009, I would have a lot more but most of the miles are getting put on the 14 Limited now, 44,000 and change, I still ride the 09 to work everyday but the 14 gets all the long trips.

Congrats on 100K. Did you have any problems with the motor--things like a stator?

couple compensator, fuel filter, , I put cams in at about 50000 and at 92000miles I got a great deal on a new to me motor from a 14 SGS...with only 10000 mi.rs on it.for $2000..There was nothing wrong with my 96” but I wanted to upgrade anyway so it was easy...I sold my 96” for $1000. At that time I put a new belt, swing arm bearing/bushings, new clutch and Baker compensator...Bike runs good and I really like to ride it but my knees are getting tired..I am working on my physical condition now but it’s hard.

Congratulations. I remember the feeling on my Evo when I passed 100,000. No camera then to capture the moment. I've driven every car since the 1990's over 220,000 miles. But being recently retired, I don't commute every weekday and nor do I travel as a salesman. I loved my job, especially in the spring through fall when I could commute and call on my Oregon, Northern California, Washington, Idaho and British Columbia customers on two.

My current ride ride is near 70,000 and will make 100,000 if I live another two years. No health issues specifically, just know at my age many of my friends are having serious issues, some have passed away. I used to average about 20,000 plus on the bike yearly before retiring. Now, 15-18000 a year is more the norm.

But it it always makes me feel good to see these milestones on your part, 100,000,128,000, 200,000. In about two years, I'll post the odometer for this bike.
