How Long Have You Owned Your Current Bike?

I just realised I have owned my current VFR for over 7 years! Buoght it in December 2000.
So now its your turn to tell yours!

2 years and a month, young secondhand VFR�05.
Didn't regret it one second!!

Got my '04 brand new just over a year ago, in Jan '07. She turned over 20,000 miles yesterday :-D

I bought Lucy new in late Spring of 05. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Summer of 05.

Ower 10 yrars now mr Wabbit...

Will be ten years for me in Aug/Sep 08.

Of that, it's done a total of 11 months on the road. Hmmm. But in that 11 months it clocked up 53 000km, an average of around 5000km per month.

Less than a year for me...Tmac time will be 1 year.

Bought my '99 on 9/12/01, w/ 3K miles.

Three years this coming summer. I really want something else too. If all goes right I'm getting a dirtbike tonight, so I guess that is kind of half of a new motorcycle.

I bought my 02 in 02.

I voted about my VFR, but there are others I own and ride that I've had for much longer, one for 26 years.

I bought my VFR in November and promptly put it away for the winter.

I owned a 1985 Nighthawk S from 1985 until 2002.

Bought my 02 in 02 Wrecked with only 200 miles on it for $600. Put it back together and have hammered this thing sence and should turn past 55,000 miles this weekend.
Been a great bike! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fing02.gif)

I've owned my '04 for about a year and a half - and over 14,000 miles. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Posted in 4-5, although I'm at 3.59. (Figured the thread will be around for a bit).

I've had my '84 VF500F since May of 1984, so almost 24 years.

The Triumph Speed Triple.....about as long as I usually own em' lately...but...she's a long term keeper..."ride-her-till-I-kill-her"............... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Got my 02 brand new in spring of 02 after I had to replace my 91 that some cage thought belonged in a ditch!

I bought my Y2K in 2001, slightly used (<3000 miles) and now have over 75,000 miles on it.

My previous bike, a '96 VFR, I bought new in '96 and sold in 2001, with just under 75,000 miles.

Another satisfied customer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Bought my '04 off evil-bay in April 07, got it registered in May 07, and put 4,000 miles on it in one summer. Not a lot for some I realize, but this is almost triple the mileage I've ever put on any other two wheeler I've owned before in a single year.

I got my 01 in very early 04 before the season started, I think it had close to 15,000 Kms on it, It's now got just over 60,000 kms on it, and looking forward to adding significantly to that this year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

took posession in Oct of last year from the guy who bought it new in 2000. only had 6050 miles on it. Only 98 of those were in the last year. It currently has weel over 7000 and I'm adding more today.

Bought my '86 VFR wrecked in 95 for $50. 13 years later, sad to say it's in the same shape I bought it in. Stupid tree.

Bought in '03 - now has 74,000 km on it

Got my '85 700 in 2000.
The '83 in 2001.
The '01 F4i in 2003,
and the VFR I bought brand new in 2006(05 leftover). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fing02.gif)

The VFR will be 1 year in three days.
The sv650 is 4 years as of yesterday.

I've had the 03 VFR for 3 years.

bought my 04 about a year ago. LOVE it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/goofy.gif)

Careful...I've said that before and have eaten my words. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

3 years for my '91. Awesome bike. Bought it from the original owner.

So now its your turn to tell yours!

Just picked up my new VFR 30 mins ago. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Looking forward to many a good ride.

Viffer

Look at that. Such a nice bell curve.

Just one day so far.
Cause I picked up my 2008 VFR800 yesterday... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The local dealer told me he would call when thefirst 1998 VFR arrived. He kept his word. I uncrated it myself on 03/06/98 and rode it home the next day.

Look at that. Such a nice bell curve.

Most respondents so far have had their bike 2- 5 years.
I wonder how long they keep them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Can't answer as I still have mine. Ownership time is still slipping into the future. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/491.gif)
Had mine 9 years. Looks like I started on one end of the curve in 1999, and now I'm close to the other.
Wow. I think I'm having a deep thoughts moment. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Got my new 2006 off the showroom floor on Saturday. Up to 38 miles and counting...

Been riding a 99 for just over 6 years now..........no problems EXCEPT for the dreaded RR problem. Love the bike, but really want a vtech.

I've owned mine since July '93. Still love it, even though it's melted. I gotta get it restored and back on the road as these gas prices are driving me batshit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Duh.
The poll is flawed: there's a gap of a year between each option, so I can't vote!

got my 07 RWB first week of december 06
the morning after her late night release. in september, my rep. stopped in to place a large order, i said order her up!

Bought my 06 in Feb 06. Almost 12,000 miles so far. Most of it in the Hill country. Bought the bike on a Friday, and had it back on Tuesday for the 600mi check up. I had a 05 Shadow before, I love this bike, it was/is my very first sport bike.

'02 bought new in 2002. I'll be keeping this one for a long time to come.

Bought used with 6,700 miles on October 3rd, 2006.

The only bike I would replace it with would be a newer V4 from Honda.

.........."6 Days"..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

skuuter trash, Apr 10 2008, 01:50 PM.........."6 Days"..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

For the 467th time!!!! Maybe we should call you PhantomSkuuter Trash? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/goofy.gif)

2 years & 8 months for the VFR and 8 months for the Bandito!

Edit to spell "Skuuter" correctly...couldn't read it right in front of my face 'cause I was blinded by his avatar!

~18 months for the VF1KR after I scorched the motor on my 700F

Now I'm buying another V-four from Honda.

Now will everyone quit asking how I plan on riding both of them at the same time?

Great so far, keep your storys coming! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fing02.gif)
