How many miles on your bike?
 

I want to know how man miles this little engine can crank out before needing a rebuild. So, who here has the most miles on his or her bike?
By the way this is a great little community you guys/gals got here.

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

dang low miles so far, I might as well post mine. Bike got 4600, but they will come up quick. I bought it two weeks ago and already put on 500 miles. I hope this little thumper can crank out 60,000k before needing an overhaul.

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

bought new in 2005. 35K without any problem or issues, now some seals and gaskets are leaking.

I've tried fixing that poll.
I have no idea what's going on.
There was a similar issue before.
Dupo may have to step in and wave his magic wand.

Butternutz...... Now she thinks she wants a CanAm..... I had to say no this time...... LOL, Well maybe for now. She really wants to ride, she just doesn't want to put the time in.

Be Safe JIM

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

Are you saying a 3 wheeler CanAm ?? They are a whole new kind of riding and a lot more work intensive than a GZ.

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

25,000

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

8000. I've been wondering this too because this is used more as a starter bike than something a longtime biker goes out and gets. I got mine in sept 2011 with 3400 and it's a 2001 so I doubled the mileage of the first 10 years in 6 months. I take riding seriously and by the responses of a few of you it looks like you take it seriously too. I've thought about upgrading to a bigger bike *gasp* because I love highway riding but I've done a couple of 3+ hour rides so I think this little puppy will keep up with me for a while. Something I learned about the California Highway Patrol is they buy Harleys new, run them in service for 40k miles and no matter what pull them off the road, rebuild the top end, then use them to the 80k mile mark in training and parades and non-highway harassment things and then auction them off after 80k. So if I get to even 40k before my engine blows I'll call it a success on a bike I bought for $900 bucks

You're gonna hurt your finger on my visor.

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

I'm very proud that I just rolled over 40,000 miles on my GZ250. It's a 2001 model that I bought new.

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

I bought my 2003 at the very end of March with 3707 miles on it. I hit 5100 miles today.

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

A 2006 bought in 2009 with only 344 miles on it.

Yipes, 344 miles in 3 years. That's bike abuse. Good rescue.

I kind of felt bad offering him $1100 and he took it.
But then again kind of felt he didn't deserve it if he wasn't going to ride it. LOL

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

A 2001 bought in fall 2011 with only 3200 miles on it.
Now has 3259

Re: How many miles on your bike?

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

Much better. A GZ needs it's exercise to stay healthy.

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

Got mine about a week ago... its a 2005 and had 2050 miles on it....... its got 2300 now :)

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

when i got her (2006 gz250) she had 5200 miles, that was two weeks a go Sunday. now she has 6100, just from going to and from school and two trips to that bike store. funny since previous owner/owners, in 6 years only put 5000 mile and i already in two weeks put almost 1000.

Re: How many miles on your bike?

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

Resurrecting this: Mine just crossed the 12,000 mile threshold, 10,000 miles after the starter clutch exploded and took out an oil passage on the side of the crankcase.

Re: How many miles on your bike?
 

Success stories are the best. It helps you OWN the bike, doesn't it?

Re: How many miles on your bike?

Re: How many miles on your bike?

FLAJIM

If she decides shes done I know a few people on here who might be more than interested in a rarely used GZ. I would be among them.

ALso I have just under 6k on the gearbox and a currently brand new top end.
