Well this has to be a big milestone. 2006 America has been very good to me.
A true workhorse.
150,000 miles in 19 and one half years.
I have to yet to hear of someone putting that amount of miles on a motorcycle.
It's kind of unfair as I am retired and ride daily.
Has anybody hit 100,000 miles on a America or old speedmaster?
Your thoughts.

I think Moe is up there too. I have too many bikes for that.

No all those 150,000 miles are on the America, purchased from Canton Cycles 5/9/2006.
I have had three motorcycles during my life time.
A Honda 175cc while I was stationed in Osan Korea.
1975 Honda 500cc while stationed at Norton Air force base, San Bernardino CA
Then the America.

I have 23 motorcycles I have 30 40 thousand on each give or take except my 64 BMW that has about 7,000 on it and my 66 TR6C chopper that I have worn out 5 engines in. No odo so not sure the miles I covered but I rode that bike all over the country. I meant Moe I think has that on his BA.
