As discussed earlier (http://www.ex-500.com/index.php/topic,613.15.html), we're going to hold a mileage competition for 2007 - lets see who takes our EX500 the farthest this year. Competition officially opened Jan. 15, 07.
Post up a pic of your speedometer. If you can't do that, you can still join, but it's preferred, so that nobody accuses anybody of lying at the end of the year!
Have fun!
(Oh, and as of right now, prize is yet to be announced, but likely there will be one )
Well, the EX probably won't be my main bike this year, but I have been considering a good cross country ride.. so I should be in. I'll try to get a pic up as soon as I can.
As luck would have it, I had the front brake replaced by the dealer on 1/16/07 (one day after the competition started), and he put down my odometer reading on the receipt: 60,225. I am also including a pic of the odometer reading today 2/5/07: 60,486
I didn't know you had to post a photo. I got the bike when it had 1 mile on it, and I decided to try the competition righ now. My spedometer reads 102.7 miles. I'll try and post a picture of the speedometer later. But I join!!!
Know this is a bad time to ask but what about the ones joining this who can ride all year vs us that can only log 4-5 months???? Maybe break it up to a regional thing so its a little more fair for everyone!
I started this idea, and I'm Canadian! But, given that I ride 10 out of 12 months a year despite at least 4 of those months having snow on the road...
I'd be open to any regional suggestions for the competition, maybe if you guys want to have a fun comp. in your regional boards?
I think we're going to try to have a prize for the grand winner of this big one - probably a t-shirt or something? Whatever I or somebody else decides to put up by the end of the year I guess...

Well i guess i'll join. I'm not to sure of the current mileage as im sitting in Iraq right now. I should be getting back to Alaska sometime in July and will gladly join in then. Once the first snow falls I'm not allowed to ride anymore though. Oh and I'm buying a 2nd bike. Soooo.....maybe i'll lose. Haha. Nah, i'll be sure to win. I'll just stick it idling on some rollers..... If i had to guess i would say the bike has around 3k miles. I'll be sure to post a pic once i get home.
Kept forgetting to get the photo. Got the forks put back together this weekend and squeezed off a shot right before rolling out of the garage yesterday. Welcome back warm weather!!
i tried getn pics but the flash kept given me a bad glare and no flash couldnt be decifered. i doubt ill win because i dont ride long distance regularly or ride everyday. let the games begin
Looks like I lied to ya...Forgot to take a picture but I was at 5113
I dont do to many long drives so I prolly wont be the winner but I think I may plan a couple of long rides this season as I wont be able to next season...a giant bird carrying a baby will arrive at my house around Oct. 4th
Here's my entry. 12,523. Not bad for a 20-year-old bike. I plan on putting that much more on it by the end of October!
