What's your mileage?

[Justdrue]

Well Let's see who the Winner is. I've got 90k on my clock and my little 07 Cityx still runs great.

 

[user_deleted]

great thread and amazing longevity. and i'm betting your XB has been well-maintained, pampered, kept out of excessive "heat" conditions, and lovingly ridden. that always seems to be the main ingredients for Buell longevity

 

[Justdrue]

Well I'm originally from Pennsylvania. Just moved to Tampa Florida. The heat bothers me big time. I plan on adding the right side scoop, oil temp gauge and maybe a 2nd or just a bigger oil cooler. But I change the oil every 2500 miles and run Lucas oil stabilizer. Thank you though.

 

[jaindesi]

Do you add oil stabalizer at every oil change? How much do you put in? Do you add this to the primary as well?

I have a 08 XB12ss and only has about 1200 miles. I am a first time motorcycle rider and I would like to keep my bike as long as I can. I have been using highest grade fuel and Mobil 1 oil for engine and primary.

 

[Justdrue]

I add 1 pint of stabilizer at every oil change Engine only. I wouldn't use it in the primary because I haven't heard anything about it being good or bad for the wet clutch. They don't pay me so I'm not going to be their test mule. Now stabilizer is petroleum based so I wouldn't mix it with synthetic oil like the Mobil 1. However I think I remember seeing a synthetic version at advance auto. Ok now let's get back on topic. 1200 miles your not even broken in yet.

I've got almost 4K on my 09 XB12Scg. Brought if home on July 8th with just over 1200 on it.

I live on the eastern side of Ohio, so I don't get a chance to ride all the time.

 

[vve are the end]

27,500 on my 04 xb12s. I always think my mileage is getting up there until I see a bike with mileage like yours. 90k gives me hope that I'll be on a buell for years to come.

 

[jaindesi]

Thanks...yea I don't ride much as I don't have anyone to ride with. I live in a urban town near New York City in Jersey.

 

[snrusnak]

I'm around 13k but I pretty much only joy ride a dozen or so times a year. I bought the bike with 6900 miles ~3 years ago. I find myself riding it more and more all the time (except summer...too hot).

I agree I'd love to be able to hit 90k on my buell!!!
