The mileage on the odometer is mileage put on by the dealership after they put the bike together from the shipping crate.

My dealership puts a total of 4 miles on each bike, based on a 'test ride route' they have set up. Sounds like your local dealership has a route that is either 7 or 9 miles long.

 

Part of the PDI is a test ride, every dealer has a favorite loop to ride.

 

Mine had 6 miles on it... Can someone please tell me what THIS means?? Not 7 or 9... I'm concerned!

 

Was there when the bike was uncrated and during the dealer-prep process. Was there to watch my bike get it's first ride and it was not by me. Don't think they will deliver a bike without a test-prep ride, it was a long 10-15 minutes waiting for my bike to come back. It sucked watching someone riding my bike before I got to ride it.

 

My dealer told me all of their bikes have 7 miles on them, but didn't state why. Given that I took my newest bike out for a demo ride before I bought it, it had 11 miles at the time of purchase. Hey, at least those extra miles were mine.

 

My Night Train had 5 miles on it, I don't know what the odometer reads on the Ultra yet, still at the dealer till better weather.

 

My bike had 15 miles on it. Guess they took the scenic route. I can't blame 'em!

 

Looked at my Ultra on Thursday when it came off of the truck with no windshield, plastic covered and mirrors turned in etc. and it had 5 miles on the odometer.

 

my dyna had 1 mile on it when I picked it up at the dealer in tennessee.

 

i need to go to dealer and check out inventory in back room to see if they all have miles on them from harley testing them before they leave the factory
