I've done a number of 24-hr rallies (riding for 24 hrs straight). Usual mileage on those is between 1000 - 1100 miles over that time period, but one back in 2009 worked out to 1,400+ miles over that 24-hr period.
Have you ever signed up for an IBA (iron butt) or LDR (long distance)?
I'd love to show this post to my dad, as yesterday when we were wiring in some more brake lights, looking for a place to put a 12v he says, "yeah the ninjas arent meant for long distances like our concours's are, town riding only." I told him anywhere he wants to go on his connie I'll lead on the 250. I have to hold my tongue a little though, as he's the one that helps me work on all the bikes I buy.
