I think I'll stick with my 97 Soft Tail- - - -it's paid for, keeps up with traffic, and looks just the way I want it to!
Jerry
That's how I feel about my '97 Heritage Springer. Evo motor. Tricked out to exactly the way I want it. Has never leaked oil. Paid off 21 years ago. What's not to like? Mother had a beautiful silver one like that. IIRC she traded it on the Roadking and it had 113,000 on it when she did.

She loved the King more than the Heritage, 90,000 on that one before going trike. Being 4'11'' and back issues, she had to. I LOVE my King and couldn't imagine something else. I may sell the King one day but it won't be for another motorcycle.

I can't imagine riding a bike 500 miles in a day.
Don't overthink it just do it!

Don't overthink it just do it! What one does is reset the trip meter at "000" and keep going until it says "500", simple as that Works for "1000" to.

Birdy - ever do any Ironbutt stuff? No, those guys are the REAL studs And the latest champ is Wendy Crockett, 13,000 miles in 11 days, WOW!  https://www.revzilla.com/common-tre...-iron-butt-rally-champion-wendy-crockettMy first long ride was in 1986 from College Station TX to Moscow ID, 2,000 miles in 48 hours. That was on an unfaired Yamaha 550 before I knew about earplugs and windshields/fairings  I climbed off the bike that evening in Moscow, lay down and closed my eyes and I could still hear the motor inside my head  Coming back the following week I did 1,500 miles in 36 hours from there to visit friends near Ruidoso NM, with an easy 650 mile putt home the next day. Between '90 and '95 I did 1,000 mile days at least three times, always on my way to NY State to visit family, first day was always my house here in San Antonio to the I 40 rest area, Smith County TN 50 miles east of Nashville, Google says 1,005 miles from my front door. I may have hit 1,000 mile days coming home too but I don't recall. Last time I tried that was 2010, but a torn inner tube in Texarkana sidelined me more'n five hours, messing up my rythm. Coming back I was riding with my brother who weren't a 1,000 mile a day kinda guy. I do acknowledge that I am hardly current with regards to motorcycles tho I didn't own a car until I was 44. I have done three long trips on two wheels over the last six years but without a motor
