Whats the most miles you have put on your M50 in one day.

I put 450 on it today.

interfire83 · 05-07-2006, 08:57 PM

200 in one day, only 950 total. I'll beat 450 before the summer is up.

Did I mention a have been riding for only 1 month? I was a virgin motorcyclist around March 25th. Self-taught.... Not bragging, it was probably stupid.

I just drove by myself up to the tip of Michigan and back to SE Michigan. Just short of the tip of the mit.

enjoyIT · 05-07-2006, 09:51 PM

and that made me realy want a new seat LOL OUCH !

Now is the best time to take the MSF course, You will be amazed at how much you don't know about riding. I am sure others here will agree.

About 350 K's and a couple of hundred the next and yes I was a bit sore. As for the seat, when I first got my M after a 20 minute stint I was feeling it but I think the more I ride it the better it gets (or the harder my but gets). I've got almost 4000K's on her now and can ride for a couple of hours at a time no problems.

170 miles on the c-50 in one day, but looking to better that soon.......

outlaw · 05-08-2006, 01:34 PM

206 miles on the M. mumble grumble hard grumble *** mumble seat grumble

hondatech15 · 05-08-2006, 04:23 PM

I totally agree with taking the MSF now. I got my bike about a year ago and took the MSF about a month after i started riding. I was self taught to ride and it was also my first bike. I learned alot about low speed manuevers and different techniques that really helped me handle the bike.
In PA where i live when you pass the MSF you are automatically given your motorcycle license and you can get an insurance discount depending on your carrier.

TAKE THE MSF AS SOON AS THERE'S AN OPEN CLASS!!!! TOTALLY WORTH IT

Jonger · 05-08-2006, 07:26 PM

The problem I have is that with work I could never make any class. I work weekends and weekdays. Its just not possible.

I've put roughly 250 miles on it one way with two stops before finishing. Hopefully that number will only go up as this summer goes along....I think it will due to the "buttbuffer" I purchased that makes me almost forget I gotta butt at all.

You must have an Iron Derriere, I've done almost that many on my C50T, but it has a more comfortable seat, Kudos

Rockhead · 05-08-2006, 11:22 PM

The furthest so far was this weekend, 400 miles. This was my first time to northwest Illinois. When you think Illinois you think flat farm land, not here. Galena to Warren was a 26 mile rollercoaster that made the trip all worth while. If you live around here give it a try it won’t disappoint you. One of the next investments though is going to be a windshield and butt buffer both my neck and rear end are sore.

Jonger · 05-09-2006, 07:47 AM

Looks like this noob is at least tied for 1st and I have only been riding for 6 weeks.

dragbar · 05-09-2006, 12:31 PM

628 miles, From my house in Missouri to Little Rock to eat Mexican, drove around a bit and then back home.

Everett Keith · 05-09-2006, 01:08 PM

You could have drove around the corner to eat mexican.

outlaw · 05-09-2006, 03:33 PM

I've been riding since 1986 and the most I've done in one day is probably 150 miles. But then again in order to do 450 I'd have to ride completely around the island....... twice

Rhodester · 05-09-2006, 07:39 PM

djump, 4000k to us Yanks is 4,000,000! Now that's one long trip!
