Me neither!

It's been around 5000 per year, but then I don't manage to get out, only being back in UK every other week. So that's not bad really!!

khu996 19-Jun-2006 19:06

Last year, it was a shameful 1500 miles, this year its looking even less.

I need to get a life, and get out more!

baylissboy 19-Jun-2006 19:59

I know this is bad, but, when i took the Foggy for it's MOT i'd only covered 20 miles!! That's the round trip distance to the MOT station!!

I've managed more this year, might even make 1,000 miles!!!

foggyrep 20-Jun-2006 01:15

Mileage....
 
Have to confess to my Foggy only doing 400 miles in its six year life most of them have been to and from services/MOT.

My 749r only doing 45 miles, but then again its only three days old! Once I get the hang of the clutch I am sure they will rack up!!

sbwells 20-Jun-2006 09:23

12,000 Km in 28 months

ath748 20-Jun-2006 11:55

Come on boys and girls, these things are meant to be ridden not stuck on a mantlepiece!!

BDG 20-Jun-2006 12:22

I did 8,000 miles on the 996R last year, would have done more but got something else to ride as well.

rockhopper 20-Jun-2006 12:33

Mines just coming up on 25,000

moto748 20-Jun-2006 13:01

I'm up around Mark's rate of use.

He's got some catching up to do, though... :)

ath748 20-Jun-2006 13:58

That's better! Grrrrr.

:devil: :devil: :devil:

Loz 20-Jun-2006 14:35

15000+ miles on my '53 plate 999S. Plus 23000+ on my Y-reg 750ie Sport. I like riding, me!

mark749s 20-Jun-2006 20:53

They think I am a nutter at the Ducati shop but I bought the thing to ride, so ride on cause the second hand value will be poor with that sort of mileage on !!!!

multi600 20-Jun-2006 21:23

42,000 in 14 months on my Multi 1000ds

duc daz 20-Jun-2006 21:52

about 3000 a year,,i would like it to more but for a sunday that isnt bad

Martinp 20-Jun-2006 21:56

Ok well i've done over 2000miles since i got my 748 and that was on the 10th of may i think so i'm racking up the miles BIG time I've also got a yam xj400 divvy that does around about 200 miles a week so i must be doing around about 12k a year.

That said racked up 17k in 11 months on my bandit last year.

In my defence the Foggy has completed 6,500k in it's 8 year life & i've always had two bikes to use!!

gordonparker 21-Jun-2006 10:20

Hi , I've done 6,500 on the 999 since last Aug and a total of 40K and 3 voltage regulators on the 748

Jools 21-Jun-2006 10:36

6000+ last year on my ST. 2340 since October on my T8. Not as much as I'd like but Mrs Jools has been poorly.

bike mad 21-Jun-2006 18:34

8,500 in 10 months,since I bought it, the most I have do in a year is 58'000 but that was a long time a go when the world was still new and exciting.

Wave 21-Jun-2006 20:30

i have done 1200 miles in 3 and a half weeks on ducati ownership, i do ride my bikes.
and another large trip to scotland looming.

Just getting the Cam belts changed and a fresh service.

GsxrAge 21-Jun-2006 21:00

I only do around 3000 a year now but I used to have to use my bike daily then I was doing 10,000 a year an if it was wet I had a car !

DC 21-Jun-2006 22:50

500 miles a week but not on the Ducati. I do this on the zx.

KeefyB 22-Jun-2006 05:57

My 999S is just a year old and done 5500 miles.Not too bad for mainly sunday morning rideouts.
Cant remember how many miles the Multi has tho.

Mate when mine does come out of the garage it gets thrashed to within an inch of its life.

ath748 22-Jun-2006 08:51

Good to hear it. That's the only way to treat them!

chillo 22-Jun-2006 12:11

currently on 6900 'careful' miles:p but it would be a lot more if the bike had not been off the road for at least 9 months of the 24 of ownership:mad:

guess what?! its off the road at the moment!!:rolleyes: :mad:

looking at K6 thou to ride when its off the road......

GetawayRider 22-Jun-2006 15:49
