How many miles did you ride in 2023?

[klaviator]

I added up my mileage for 2023.

Like150i - 4195
KLX250 - 3536
ADV150 - 3169
Majesty - 2757
Versys - 2743

Total - 16,400

I also did a bunch of demo rides last year. I'm guessing another 100 miles from those rides so 16,500 miles total. That's a pretty good year for me but I am hoping to do better this year.

As I expected I rode my scooters a lot more than my motorcycles, 10,121 miles vs 6,279.

Also interesting is that my three smallest bikes are at the top of my mileage list.


Anyone else keep track of their mileage?  If so, how many miles did you ride in 2023?

not enough
maybe 2000 on my AK550 and 500 or so on my K-Pipe

hmmmm....not a good riding year, here. 2019 total miles. Life, work, family...stuff gets in the way.

Honda Helix - 181 miles (have leaking front tire bead, need to get it repaired)
Honda Nighthawk 650 - 705
Kymco People S200 - 84 (sold)
Kawasaki Ninja 300 - 1049

Ditto what Iahawk said... family stuff prevented as many miles as I usually ride in a year. Looking forward to 2024 allowing more miles on 2 wheels.

I rode only 3615 miles in 2023. About half as many as I usually ride in a year for the last 15+ years. I usually ride 6500 to 7500 miles per year with a few years over 10,000 miles mixed in there.

for me, my low miles is due to my suffering health, and many of my miles were just going to a doctors appointment. I did go on 2 short trips, a visit to my alma mater for the annual Sugarbush pancake breakfast was about 750 miles on my AK550, and Labor Day weekend I went to my brother's maybe 500 miles that weekend. nothing big on my K-Pipe like '22 when I had a 200 mile day to the summit of Mount Washington

I started another hobby as well, chainsaw milling, rented an excavator for a month in prime riding weather

I always thought when I retired I would ride more, not sure what happened, when I was working, and using my bike as a company vehicle, by 2004, I had 135k on my '99 SV650 that's an average of 27k/yr, I know I did close to 40k one year, most of the miles I could claim on my taxes, don't remember the exact amount, but close to a $20k deduction

Can't do that anymore, and the GSA rate that the IRS allows is up to 65¢/mile now https://www.gsa.gov/plan-book/transportation-airfare-pov-etc/privately-owned-vehicle-pov-mileage-reimbursement

Happy New Year Everyone !!! Well thanks to having the new AK this July I Squeeked in 7 k on it and 3 k on the rest of the scoots my dirt biking went down to about 100 hours but the road riding is really starting to be my riding fun . So about 10k and all of it was just for fun since I live where I work . I also put about 75 k miles on my trucks a year so I drive a lot .

My maint. and mileage info is kept in the owner's manuals.....under the seats out there in the cold garage.
And I'm in my new Xmas jammies....

So, no idea.

My verdict too Randy!  Less than 500 on the Triumph, about 200 on the son's KTM and roughly 3,000 on my X-Town & DTX combined.

my maintenance, repair, mileage is on my dealer's computer, probably 300k-400k over 5 bikes and 25years worth, some paid for, some bartered, but the record of all of it, available at the push of a button
