Have had my 07 for about 5 weeks and have put only 200 miles on it.....weather sucks here in Idaho.....I froze my ass off this morning going to work, looks like it will be around 60-65 when I get off so should be a nice ride home....

You West coast guys are lucky. I only managed to put 80 miles on my '07 Repsol. New York is in the middle of this rain storm from hell. Looks like we wont be able to ride for weeks to come.

Maybe he thought it would be a major collectors item, too bad the 07 came out. I noticed a drop in 05 prices once the 07 info was released, but they still do hold their value a lot better than any other liter bike.

My 07 has 300 miles on it. Went from 70 degrees to snow the next week. Rode it sunday for the first time in 10 days, left for my buddies at 8am when it was 37 degrees.

37, thats cold. I dont feel bad about not riding right now. I have the Repsol in pieces hanging from a lift. Thought I would take advantage of the bad weather and put all my new parts on. The bike looks like it was stolen and sold for parts right now. Breaks my heart to see her like that, but it will be worth it.
Once the weather breaks me and the boyz do our 300 mile hike up in the rich part of town, where the roads are perfectly kept.

Hate to admit it, but my 07 has 20 miles on it. Just way too busy to ride right now. Plus the weather actually went south here the last 2 weeks. Bought mine at the first of March.

Geez - as of today (Monday) I've had my bike for two weeks. Will roll 500 miles tomorrow. She'll be "broke in" - time for an oil change and then it's time to play!!

Well.

It snowed here Easter Sunday.:eek: Two days ago we had monster hail storms (some areas had baseball sized hail, literally) and 4 tornados touched down. Calling for severe thunderstorms again tonight.

But luckily there are more nice days than not.

So, the natural next question is "Who has the most miles on their '05?"...I'm crackin' 10,000 now... I say ride it baby!
