sell it.... I'd have to sell mine three times over then! Over 60thousand on mine, and still going strong! |

I sold my '03 XB9S at 32k, it was still going strong. I missed it so I bought an '05 XB9SX with 4k. |

I'll have 20K on my 07 before July. Sitting at 18.2K right now... Not looking forward to turning it over to my dealer for the service tho... I already know they're going to do me raw with no lube. But it's better to be safe then sorry on the side of the road, or worse yet upside down in a ditch! |

I guess I'm supprised that people don't put any miles on their bikes,for the time they own them.I have 18000 plus today,07 12s will be 1yr. old the 29th. of this mo.No major problems as long as I do all my own service and stay out of the stealerships around Dallas. |

Only 20k? Do you only use the thing to go to church on Sundays? |

I just rolled over 10k on 5/20. I took delivery of a new 08 on 6/19/08. Had to park it for two months due to weather. Minimal miles commuting, almost all miles spent making me grin ear to ear. |
