Thats what we pay all this money for...to ride the crap out of them. I never understood why people buy a bike, put $1000s in extras in it and then never ride it. Seems like you might as well just throw your money in the trash.

I usually get about 8,000-9,000 miles per year on my bike and I live in Pennsylvania. We can only realistically ride from April - early November. Now, if I can do that living where I do, how can you only drive 800 miles or 1200 miles per year living in a warmer climate??? I just don't get it.[sm=dontgetit.gif]
As someone else said, "Ride the hell out of it".
I'd rather have a worn out bike in 10 years and have a ton of great riding memories than brag about my 10 year old bike that only has 3000 miles. That's just dumb *** stupid.[sm=lame.gif]
