orrick, mo | Thats how many miles I have averaged each month on my Vision 30009 mi in 16 months.
I still think it sits in the garage too much though. 
Winter is coming real soon and I already can't wait for spring.
On well I know how to wear layer to keep warn will riding as long as
the white Sh** stays away.
Next season I'll try to up the average and my happiness factor.

Green Bay, WI United States | Keep the white s*** away is what I am looking for. Not sure where you are but here in WI. the sh** is starting to hit the fan. I average 1200 per month on my TCD (Hot Rod) but hope to increase my riding time with my 08 Vision SP (Twister). Riding the Vision compared to the TDC is like going from a Caddy ride to a f***** buckboard. I will spend some money in the spring on the seat for the TCD and if this does not help I will put a hard wooden plate for a seat and hot rod the motor and use it as a suprise stop light bandit. After the white s*** flys and the salt hits the road all it does is tear up all the aluminum cases and assorted parts on the bike.
Ride hard, ride fast, but above all - ride safe.....

| I did 10650 miles in six months for an average of 1775. So you got me by 100 miles a month. The winter stuff is here now in North Dakota. We are under a blizzard advisory for the next 24-36 hours. That really sucks!! Come on spring!! |

orrick, mo | Plenty of oil changes and ect. I'm needing a new front tire again. Plan to back to the elite 3 and see how it holds up with the ct on the back. I got about 13000mi. out of the metz I'm currently running. I had gotten almost 17000 out of the stock E3 though. The Metz has seen more corning the the Elite 3 did though. |

Green Bay, WI United States | Be aware that all OEM tires, motorcycle and/or car manufactures make a slightly different carbon black compound for the OEM. I will be replacing the tires in the spring on my 03 TCD and willl be going with the Metzlers and will continue on with my Vision unless they don't preform in the manner they did 25 years ago. Best tires I ever owned. All I can say is the tires on the 03 have worn very even and have never given me any reason to be scared or feel slighted. Ride on Brothers and Sisters..... |
