Who has put the most miles to date on their CB's?
And what year / model is it?
In addition, who's taken the longest, round trip, trip on their CB?
When? Where?
Hint... it's not me on both counts, sorry to say.

I know it's not me either, but ... I've put 19,000 kms (11,875 miles) on my 2011 CB1100 since I bought it just under a year ago.
The longest trip I've taken was 4,741 kms (2,963 miles) from my home in SE Queensland Australia to Mildura in Victoria and back.
I know Pterodactyl has done way more kms (miles) and Tezza (who hasn't logged in since June) rode to Tasmania and back to Queensland, which I suspect is further than Mildura.

I think Randy B has a lot of miles on his. I would have over 12,500 miles on mine if I hadn't switched horses. Put 7, 035 on my 13 and have almost 5,500 on my 14. I took 2 multi day multi state trips on the 13, one to NC and one to W VA but I think the longest was about 1500 miles.
I think Joola took a trip of just under 4000 miles back in early 2013.

Had my CB1100 one year ago today, 9/11, and have 12,050 mi. Longest trip was a 3,000 miler to Barber Vintage in Birmingham, AL in May. Longest day was 800 mi from Kingdom City, MO to Whitney, Nebr. Convinced me to get the Corbin seat, worth every penny. First new bike for me in 32 years, not disappointed.

I'm pathetic compared to those numbers!
I brought my CB home last May and only have 2100 km's on it.
I spent most of the summer painting my house which was about 2-3 years overdue - which made it more work but had to be done.
I also have other bikes that I rode from time to time keeping the mileage low.
I'll be lucky to hit 3000 km's this year as it's mid September and it's over for me by the end of October.

Maybe I'll start a thread about who has the fewest miles racked up! 
...I've had mine 5 months, and have maybe 400 miles on it. Yeah, yeah, I know, but being a business owner, home owner, family guy, and just a pleasure rider these days, and that's just the roll of the dice for me.
Actually, that's also why I had 4 bikes this time last year, and have only two now, with recent thoughts of putting one of them on the auction block.
All I can say is, I may not have the time or the miles on my bike as most on here, but I sure do enjoy them anyway!

Well I took delivery on 4/27/2013. There were three miles on it and I now have (with my 3 month lay off) almost 18,100 miles. I am tooting around town here and there, but nothing major as of yet. When I go back to work the miles will start racking up again however.
