I had the stock clutch at 35k with only a bearing in the clutch adjuster going bad from doing burnouts and wheelies!

I have 35,000 miles on mine with the original clutch. I commute daily to work, road race in the CMRA, and sport tour with mine. Replaced the stator(hopefully it was the Mobil 75W-90) and the fan at 20,000.

I still have my original clutch.

26K

Plenty of track days, burn-outs, wheelies, drag strip test and tune nites.

2003 XB9R with a tick under 45,000 miles, have not ridden the first 9 months of this year otherwise I would be at about 55K. Original clutch. The stator, voltage regulator and speed sensor were replaced at 28k when using Mobil 1 75w-90. Voltage regulator ground side of connector melted at 38k replaced connector. Had speed sensor go out about the same time, I am on my 3rd speed sensor. Have gone through a lot of tires and brake pads. Commute daily, some track days, lots of canyons.

'03 XB9R: 48,000, but it's on it's third engine.
Original went to 24,000 mi. - demise was the countershaft retaining screw backed out and pushed the mainshaft & bearing out of the case. Tear down also revealed one of the cam lobes wiped out also.
Second engine installed (Salvage with 800 mi.) ran another 22,000 mi. - demise with this one was spun cam bushings and took the pinion bearing with it.
While I was on the second motor I rebuilt the original with all kinds of goodies : ) and had it in a track only chassis until the second motor went - then I decided to put the original motor back in it with all the goodies and part out what was left of the track-only chassis.

I do ride the piss out of them and have had an awful lot of fun. But I'll take that Austrian engine please.

Just crossed the 20K miles barrier today. Of course, I missed the speedo change (I clicked over at 20,003). I just like to see that kind of stuff.

48,000 on my '06 Uly.

I will be buying a new '08 Uly in a couple of weeks.

I hope the '08 is at least as great of a bike that my '06 was.

Anyone interested in a well maintained, great running '06 Uly with full factory bags at a good price? (complete with Eric Buell signed commemorative windscreen, #73)
