     So  a lot of us have been riding for donkeys years, but wondering if anyone has kept track of the amount of Kms you have done.

    I reckon I have clocked up about 50,000km so far on my last 3 bikes.  Don't know about the bikes before that.

    So... how far have you gone?

    I sat down and tried to work out roughly how many kms I've done on bikes over the years after a thread like this on another forum a while back and as best as I can work out it's somewhere near half a million kilometres spread over about 40 years.

    When I got back into riding in 96 I bought a 78 R100s and did 120,000 on that.

    In 2004 I bought the Suzuki LC and I've done just over 100,000 on that.

    Just bought a totally rebuilt 84 FXST and I've done 200 km on that as so far The Throttle cable broke 2 weeks ago and left me stranded and on Monday the Clutch cable broke and left me stranded.

    Left it over night outside a Garage and checked my Insurance when I got home.

    Got TBoned on the LC back in 08.
