Harley Calculator (time vs Mileage)

Longevity, we will see how that goes, do i expect it to get the 550,000km that i got out of 83 Goldwing, or the 194,000km that my 89 Goldwing is sitting at, probably not, but hey as long it keeps running and keeps the grin on my face, i'll be one super happy camper, i'm thinking the Goldwing is going to be pretty lonely this year. this 3-4 months of winter that we have been getting the last few years is killing me. roads are clear so i'm almost debating getting the skidoo suit on and going out riding, and freezing, and enjoying every minute of it.
I have over 210,000 kilometers on mine, and it is still purring along quite happily.
 
Longevity of Motor Cycles is a thing that always amazes me we stand in awe of a bike that runs up 200,000 Klms or so but a modern car is capable of much higher mileage than that ,a big diesel truck is just "run in" at 500000Ks dragging around 30 or 40 Tonne you would think a bike like the Rocket with a relatively light weight and large engine to weight ratio would be good for at least 300000Ks trouble free, Why is this not a reasonable expectation

That is definitely inspiring, i hadn't seen anyone posting large mileage numbers on these bikes when i was researching them, mind you my first of research was originally looking at the America LT, then turning around and seeing one of these monsters, and those three pipes, at that point it was, I NEED TO HAVE ONE OF THOSE, and then spent the next 6-months researching and trying to find one, one of the best decisions i ever made

I have to say, I enjoyed it while I owned it. I think I just got bored with it after 5 years. I wouldn't mind having another one as a third bike...after a Rocket 3 Roadster. :p:cool::rolleyes:
