usually around 10,000 for me and I am in MO where I can only ride about 8 or 9 months a year. Also usually go on a yearly ride that consists of around 1000miles in a day and 2500-3000 during the entire trip.
 
not sure i bought my bike in june and i put 4000 miles on it but i live in MI so i quit riding it in november. i did put 600 miles the first weekend i had it the twisties are to much fun!!!
 
i had 5000 on my buell and i dont remember how many i had on my kz650 i think it was about 2000 but no long trips for me just everyday riding to and from work and then cruises after work and weekends
 
I ride mine as a daily driver whenever possible cause an SRT-10 Ram drinks fuel like there isn't going to be any the next day lol. In the summer I will usually go out with some friends 2 or 3 nights a week with it so I ride I would say quite a bit for a sportbike.
 
I have two bikes, an '07 XB Lightning and an '09 Electra Glide Standard. One of the pluses of living in central Florida is you can ride year round. On a good year I average between 15-20,00.
 
according to my calculations i ride about 8200 miles a year. since i bought my bike in oct 07 i've put 19000 on it.

I ride all year and most of my riding is just commuting back and forth to work which is only 16miles round trip.
 
well ive just started really riding in mid december, but im at almost exactly 3k now
so.. 12k a year? lol
provided i ride as much in the heat of summer as i did in the cold of winter
and that i dont sky rocket in miles during the next couple months
 
I road 15k over the summer on my xb9 to trips to nc and 2 to wi
in mich so mines been up since late nov
I have bought a1125r aswell and one will likely get pit on storage in nc
now that my gf is here and we will be commuting more cofertably for 2 back to nc
 
First year 5000 mi. Shooting for 10,000 this riding season,starting with a trip to the Dragon April 16-18th.:)
 
I got my buell just before the 4th of July and put on 5k by October when I parked it but it also had about a month in the shop getting tires (it was rain season in Michigan and mine were bald in the center) and brakes and other things. it was only supposed to take 3 days. I figure I'll get around 11k this year.
 
Bought my bike on NOV,5.. only made it 150miles this year in between our massive snow storms in VA&DC Planning for 5000 this year.
 
I have a Suzuki V-Strom 1000 also, and I do about 16,000 a year on it. I ride it to work all year here in Middle TN. I just got the Buell in Jan and haven't put many miles on it yet. I suppose I should get the license plate first
 
this past year I have been deployed so none except about 200 miles while I was on leave. This year though when I get home I am going to ride the wheels off my bikes.
