    Hmm, lets see...

    1979 Triumph Bonneville +/- 1000 miles
    1978 Honda CB750 +/- 1000 miles
    1997 Honda CBR1100XX 543 miles (wrecked at 100 mph on mass pike, learned quickly why newbies shouldn't buy the fastest production bike available, no matter how sick it is to be able to lift the front in almost any gear )
    2000 Suzuki SV650S +/- 10000 miles
    2000 Triumph TT600 5200 miles (as of this morning )

    So I guess only about 18,000 miles so far in 4 years of full time riding (I took a break from 97 - 01 after the CBR wreck due to recovery, and 'the fear' from said wreck)

    Need more miles!!!

    Cheers,
    Chris

    But when we ride very fast motorcycles, we ride with immaculate sanity. We might abuse a substance here and there, but only when it's right. The final measure of any rider's skill is the inverse ratio of his preferred Traveling Speed to the number of bad scars on his body. It is that simple: If you ride fast and crash, you are a bad rider. If you go slow and crash, you are a bad rider. And if you are a bad rider, you should not ride motorcycles.

    LOOONG break from riding
    35,000+ miles on a 1986 Concours starting in 1998
    32,000+ miles on a 2001 ZX9R starting in 2002 (why did I wait so long to try a sport bike???)
