Bought the '94 in Sept '02 with 8k miles on it and it now has...(as he runs out to look) 18,782. Gee, only 5k per year...

Bike was only down for one week...
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

2000 GS, May 2002, 2253 miles.

Now, about 11,700.  I need to ride more :)  Planning a trip to North Carolina this fall.

My commute is only about 10 minutes, and my wife begs me not to ride in the rain, so maybe it's not too bad :)
