| I'm at 15,385 (I'm responsbile for a little over 10,000 of the Swing miles). My Trip to Memphis and back this weekend will probably get me to 16K. I also have 27,000+ on a Honda Helix of which I am responsible for all of those miles. |

| I bought my 2002 S"Wing used with 14,000 miles on it. Crummy weather in the Midwest keeps me from riding as much as I'd like, but, I'll be riding my Silver Wing for many years (God willing). Hope to see you on the road. Randy (treehugger) |

| Well I just tipped the scales on the poll. I'm at 15580 miles as of yesterday. I wonder if I can go all season before replacing the belt. That will mean waiting until about 18000 miles - hopefully. |

Unless you're consintently very aggressive in accelerating from a stop, there is no reason why you can't go 20K or over without replacing the belt. I replaced my original belt at 22K and it didn't measure any different from the Honda replacement belt. Tim |

| Wow, thats good to hear. Thank you, thought i was wearing my Swing out by riding so much, nice to know im still breaking her in. The wife and I purchased the Swing in March of last year, a new 2008, have been riding ever since. Our life has changed dramatically, we now have our list of to do things as " THINGS TO BE DONE WHEN IT IS RAINING", cause we know what we are doing if it's not raining. Thanks again on your info.

| I got my Swing on Sept. 25 2010 with 3700 miles on it. In the first 7 weeks since I got it I put just about 1600 miles on it. We had a really nice fall this year. Most of those miles were done on weekends. Haven't rode in over a week. Maybe Sunday. This is the first bike I have ever ridden except for the small motorcycles I rode in my MSF course and the scooter class I took over the summer. Having a great time. |

| I bought my '04 SW last June with 5500 miles on it. The PO's wife had gone down on it in gravel and it had been sitting in their garage for a couple years. I put a new rear quarter panel on it and some touch up paint and removed 95% of the scrapes so it looks pretty good now. It's got 7700 miles on it now which amounts to an average only 366 miles per month. Not much but I use it mostly for errands and around town only one 200 mile roundtrip so far. I generally tend to take the Goldwing on the longer runs. But one of these days the GW is going to be too heavy for my aging carcass to handle and the SW will be waiting to become the main machine. Sure love the little thing in town and traffic, much easier than my big bike. It will be nice too if the Oregon passes a proposed new law to allow lane sharing ala California, the SW is quite narrow which would make it very good for the few congested areas we have on busy days. |

| I plan on riding the Swing to and from work when the weather allows. I have a 15 mile round trip each day in the city. No expressways just city streets. Also, plan on riding on weekends with my husband on longer rides and are planning some longer trips next riding season. Can't wait. |
