Kinda sad on the RS
RS-47765
RT-19020
when you are as popular as you are Lamont you will get less I am sure because everyone is talking you up and with the events I am sure it drags down the miles.
Your miles are a standard to go by for sure, thanks again for the idea of this thread, I did forget exactly what I had last year.
Every time someone asks "So how many miles you got on that thing?" I reply "A hundred. Done all in rain and snow."
And then I sit back and allow them to explain to me how much better it is if I would use up my Spyder quicker...
I was just explaining the opposite of what you say to people I work with that either don't ride or have a harvey danielson in the garage that they are "keeping the miles low on for the resale on their 95 stock sporty"
I said that I must be poor or from being raised that way to have something that costs 20k just sit or only have a handful of miles on it.
I do understand that there are real life factors that relate to this like kids, wifes that don't ride, normal jobs and not wanting to ride in the rain, wind or on cloudy days but I can not say that you can use a spyder up running it.
I see people on here with 1500 miles that have WAYYYY more problems than I do and I run it arguably too much or too hard.
From my limited experience with all toys you drive IF you let them sit they will go to crap more than the daily driver. I know this sounds silly because moving items wear and you have a chance to crash as soon as you get it moving but that does not change what I have seen.
Maybe its because I didn't buy mine to pull the tarp off it and say "look at quick before it get dirty" I mean thanks to lamont I DID win a award at a spyder show with the death machine.
Everyone that rides I consider a friend on the road and more so if they are on this site but friends can disagree and I think thru talking about disagreements is how people really get to see someone else's perspective.
