Just wondering how you lot go clocking up the kms (or miles...).

I bought my Storm new in mid-November '06 & have just about hit the 20,000 mark.

Australia is big

Mine's an '00 model. Its only just hit 20000 miles in 7 years. Should I be ashamed?

Tsk Tsk Tsk! You all should be ashamed!

My last Storm saw over 112,000 in two & a half years.

I'll be clocking up at least another 5,000km over a couple of weeks in October when I make the obligatory pilgrimage to Phillip Island to stay in the luxury abode with a house-full of other Stormers over the GP week. Ner ner nee nerrr nerrrrrrr

!

Oh well, I guess you lot have to look on the bright side... you'll do better for resale

(Then again... I did get $6,000 for my old one...)
