How many miles are on your GS?

This topic http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=46656.0 got me thinking about the average number of miles a GS has on it right now and how that relates to the total number of miles the bike is capable of going. It would be handy to have some statistics on the number of miles a typical GS is likely to have on it, so I'm asking everyone to spend 30 seconds and to go look at your odometer and post the year of your GS and how many miles it has on it. For all the GS members out there in faraway lands that use the metric system, just tell me what units you're in so I can convert. If enough people post, I'll make some nice graphs of things like average number of miles on a GS by year, overall average, average number of miles driver per year and things like that... Wouldn't you like to know how you compare to the average GSTwins bike?

I'll go first with my two GSs:
1994 - 87612.5 miles
1994 - 24568.0 miles

My current 2002 GS just turned 67000 miles.

I put 80,400 miles on my 97 GS and JP ran it up to about 88k miles and put in a used low milage engine.  The 97 GS has over 100k miles on it now.

Bought the 97 new and the 02 with about 4500 miles on it so I have about 142,900 GS miles on me.   :thumb:
407,400 miles in 30 years for 13,580 miles/year average.  Started riding 7/21/84 and hung up helmet 8/31/14.

2005 GS500f, bought in June 2008 with 3294 miles, now has 8700 miles i think.  weird that i remember the mileage i bought it with, but not the current.
Those who think they know it all are very annoying to those of us who do.
