2008 Classic
on my R3 Classic so far. Most of the miles have been riding back and forth to work a couple times a week, but I've had a couple of 200 mile trips. I have a trip planned in a couple of weeks which will be a over 9 hours long at 409 miles of just riding.

Kennewick, Clarkston, Enterprise, Tollgate, Umatilla, Kennewick - Google Maps

This will be a good mix of high desert, and mountain riding with the leg between Clarkston and Enterprise being full of twisties and altitude up and downs.

In September I plan on riding to Las Vegas for a couple of days then to Tuscon, AZ to visit my folks. The wife refused to sit on the bike for more than 2 hours, so she's going to drive while I ride. I'm really excited for this 1,700 mile (each leg) ride.

I'm having a blast on this monster, sorry I waited so long to get another bike!
 
That surely looks to be a mighty mighty comfy seat. Now if I could only manage to get my hand on one of them thar stimulating checks passed out over the past couple years I'd have one

I don't recall having said so before, so, welcome to site Captain Phil.

Congrats Phil !
I've put on 13k since February this year. Love my ride too !

Oh and that Russell Day Long...... I think I'm going to save some money up and get that combo. The stock seats are not too nice.
