Got over 22,000 on the '04 SEEG.  Only minor electrical problems, shifter kept getting loose, replaced rear tire around 14K, annoyances like moisture in the fuel guage.....I keep looking at it and wondering if it's worth changing out.  Small chrome bubble on one floorboard.  Blown passing lamp (twice).  Slow leak on tire right out of the box on 1st out of State trip.....never found the culprit....put a tube in and kept the tire.  Love the bike.

Picked it up the day after Thanksgiving ..29 degrees , rode home 300 miles.  Have 2000 now , as much in 3 months as either of the previous owners did in the whole time they had it , warm weather will finally be here soon and I plan on having at least another 10K this year

I really have empathy for some of you guys and ladys.  It was 72 degrees here in Sacramento today and forcasted to be as high as 76 this week.

Due to my accident last May and laying in the hospital for a month and a half and in a wheelchair for three more months, I only have 6,000 miles.  I put the last thousand on since I started riding again.  Put in a couple hundred today and it was great!  I love this bike! [smiley=laugh.gif]

Thanks for the sympathy... some of us appreciate it  Today in Chicago will be 63, and tomorrow will be snowing again and in the 20's all week! [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]  Guess what I'll be doing today since my bike's been parked for 3 months!!! [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif] Spring here is a bit unpredictable and extreme. [smiley=beerchug.gif]

I know what you mean,,, Had to take a ride,,,
Ride for 2 hours,,, and clean for 3 hours.
I did the same a few weeks ago.
It was great from the riding stand point of view... but the cleaning and detailing.
Not a good idea,,, to much salt on the roads in Eastern Michigan..
But I would do it again.. I just had to ride the new bike it only has 550 miles on it.

300 miles yesterday (first ride this year!)  [smiley=laugh.gif] The bike looked like I sprayed it with white spray paint when I got home.  [smiley=furious.gif] 2 hours of washing last night! It's supposed to snow and be crappy again this whole week.  It WAS worth it.  [smiley=beerchug.gif]

[Dr. Evil]

AAARGH.... Just watched the weather.... 65/sunny yesterday... 15/snow tonight.  Guess that I better relish that mileage from yesterday.... won't be riding for a while.  Chicago sucks  [smiley=confused.gif]  Who here has the best/most consistant weather??? Just curious.  [smiley=beerchug.gif]

[Dr. Evil]

Actually... headed up north by you and realized it wasn't quite as warm... so we turned around and headed back.  Really had no destination... we just rode around delirious from the heat!!! [smiley=1syellow1.gif] [smiley=1syellow1.gif] [smiley=1syellow1.gif].

About 1K since I got it in Oct. '04 due to other commitments. Been riding in between the rain. Kinda cold here at night...46 and 75+ forecast for the next week [smiley=1syellow1.gif]

I only have 1400 miles, I got 1359 of them Jan 5-10.   
 
My bike was picked up on the 19th of Dec, we got a snow/ice storm 15 minutes after the garage door closed.  Then between commitments for Christmas and New Year, only got to go out to the garage and look at the beautiful bike. But for five delirously wonderful days in the very beginning of January, I got to ride.  Awesome bike. Wonderful handling.  Then I had to turn it into the shop for it's first service and some mods. I only got the bike back on March 1.  So that was 22 days in my garage and 51 days at the dealers.  It took a real long time to do the mods.   
I hope to get a lot of riding in now.  I can't wait to try out the heated grips that I had put on.  It was real windy and cool on the 1st when I drove it home, but I did not feel any heat coming from the grips. I'll test more now.  The new handlebars are absolutly wonderful.  Thanks to this site, I got the Wildone bars on it and it feels much better than before.  Unfortuneately, my dealer still replaced all the stainless steel cables except the clutch.  The bike is just unbelievable, as you all know.  For those of you in Florida and California, don't rub it in too much for those in Wisconsin and Canada. They have a very short riding season.  I just left my husband in Montgomery, AL, he got to ride his B&B there. He met three other riders who brought there bikes from SD so they could ride.  I could not beleive how many bikes I saw on the hiway between AL and VA.  A lot of people out on bikes in those southern states.

Mrs. We, did they give any explanation as to why they replaced the throttle cables?

[Jock]

Well I guess I am just plain late regarding this post, however with that being stated, here's the data on the current bikes...

SEEG            2,500
Chopper       3,900
Fatboy          45,000

Enjoy the Ride!

Well I guess I'm late also.......but I have 52,350 on the 2002 FLHRSEI (Purple)

Just put the 3rd front tire, and 5th rear. Metzler ME880 this time
replaced front pads with 2nd tire,
and have a second set on the rear. OEM on the front and DP onthe rear.
Less brake dust to clean, and not near the metal pieces to pit the wheel.

Still love it ! going for 100,000 on this one ! [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]
