Came home from work last night Red NT has 100,075 miles. We have to make our own award request cause this forum software doesn't have the awards button. Bought Red in Nov 2017, didn't start riding until Oct 2018. So put these miles on in 4 yrs 10 months. Bought it used with 504 miles, so for me next Wednesday I'll pass MY actual 100,504 miles for MY official 100K on the bike.
Silver had 201,111 miles in 6yrs 10 months. That was the only bike I had, so all my vacation trips were on that bike which made miles add up faster. Adding the Spyder in Mar 2017, now have over 44K miles on that bike. Bought Spyder used with just 224 miles on it.
I'm sure no one else in USA has put 100K miles on 2 NT's, or over 200K on one NT. I have only kept mileage records since 1997 when i got my 1st PC800. Just added up the miles...... just over 573K miles in that time span. The 3 other road bikes I had since 1978 I would guess combined 20K miles.
For those reading for first time, since 1997, these are mostly work miles, as I have been as close as 22 miles one way to 56 miles one way to work. Just not able to be close to home, so what better way to commute = motorcycles!!!!
Here in NC, we have better warmer winters. My best calendar year was just 7 days of NON M/C riding. I just completed my longest continuous riding spell Feb 8, 2022 to April 8 2023. Thats 14 months straight of riding to work, never have done that many days straight. A new record. Just had a warmer end on winter in 2022 and a warmer 2022 / 2023 winter. Some days were not pleasant to ride, rain days, heavy rain days, cold winter weather, etc, but I had a goal to achieve!!! And what broke the streak????? April 9th, was going to be a cold rainy day, I was just tired of recent riding in cold rain and drove the truck!!
