Okay, other than no time to ride. 10K for me is pathetic. Have only put around 20K on the 03 in the 11 months I've owned it... :'( Should have around 35K (by me) on it by now. Cheap Savage electrical systems...

I have an intimate understanding with that electrical system concept myself.

Serowbot, have you checked the mileage Paladin did on his Savage, I could be wrong, but one of his posts seemed to indicate more than 30000 miles?

Sure. Got my 2000 Savage in '04 with 5K miles on it. Sold the bike in '13 with 35K miles on it. 30K miles in 8 years is under 4K miles a year. Now I am tired and retired I've done 14K miles in 30 months, a bit under 6K miles/year. Same license plate and frame on the Savage and the Scoot.

Reply #23 - 06/11/15 at 10:59:12 I can't let rnwyrlph get ahead of me. I'm guessing I rode about 18,000 or so on both bikes. I meant to look and see how many miles was on the '06 before I posted the pic, but I forgot. I'm sure no one else has that problem. Added,... - Serow

OK.. This more of a personal milestone, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Roll Eyes

Noticed this when I got home from July 4th ride out in the Hill Country.

Thumper has "lapped" Mad Hamish in the odometer arena.

Mad Hamish 37,996 (call it 38,000)

Thumper 138,043 (call it 138, 000)

and I have video of them both running, and both the odometers.

Next milestone target: 150,000 for Thumper or 200,000 combined Cheesy

2002 - Silver (Thumper)
2000 - Green (Mad Hamish)
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut between the seat and the handlebars. Make sure yours isn't too tight or too loose.
