RE: Highest Miles on a Honda?
I had to clean up my carbs and re-jet them.
Battery replaced once. Tires..of course.
I put brakes on it three times. Replaced A LOT of air filters. I ran Motul 5100 15W-50 in it the whole time I had it.
I had someone bend and weld me a custom exhaaust for just the price of the metal! It served me well to keep the mileage off my sportbike and it was comfortable!
I sold it to a kid for $300!!! Last I saw it, he had almost 200,000 miles on it...then I have never seen him again!

ThirdGenx always has pics and stories.
He's got a 2004 F4i and he's got 73,000 miles since his last post... prolly has somewhere around 75K now.
Yeah, I think he beat that.
I got my 96 F3 on Oct. 6th of this year, I have officially put 3,100 miles on it. So, pound for poundI beat you too
Oh yeah, so did ol' boy right under you
EDIT: Pretty much everyone in this thread so far has you beat, lol.

I'm at 72,364, '04 F4i that I bought new 10-17-04 with 3 miles on it, so she's only 2 years 1 month and 6 days old [:-]

J/K!!Enviro is right though, I do have a somewhat decent daily commute to work everyday, 88 miles roundtrip. However I've only been at that job for 3 months, so it definitely doesn't account for all of it. The rest consists of lots and lots of sunday morning group rides (or by myself before I had met anybody, lol), roadtrips, joy riding, etc. Since you asked, and they say a picture is worth 1000 words, I'll let a few of my pics do my dirty work and show ya right where some of these miles come from
This is all just in the last 11 months... don't have all too many pics before thenDec '05 - Birmingham, AL

That's just the bigger trips that I have decent pictures of. There's countless other local shorter trips and group rides. But these show a pretty good chunk. That pretty much sums up how I rack up my mileage though
