The other day I road about an hour and a half on 30, 83 and 695 to get myself down to MD. I did 80-90 pretty much the whole way. The bike felt good, didn't bother me and it wasn't too buzzy honestly.
I got pissed on the way home though. Apparently if you weave in and out of traffic in a car it's not a problem. But as soon as you do it on a bike, you get honked at for 5 minutes straight. I was like wtf... I can't help you're not going as fast as I am. I was just looking for my normal buddies that drive faster than 60 mph. I'm trying to get home from work, not sight see. I was also pleasantly surprised as I had a guy that actually slowed down in the left hand lane (making other cars slow down as well) to let me get safely in front of him. I gave him a nice wave and then I was off again. lol

About 700 kms in 10 hours
But i stopped every 200 km, because i was with a MT-01, and that thing had to be refilled unbelievably often for a bike of that size

Longest by distance would be my trips between Vegas and LA -- of which my longest would be the first (I was all wimpy and going slow) which I believe was 6 hours.

Granted, it was on my R1, but I did an Iron Butt ride, cover 1019 miles in a little less than 20 hrs. There was a group of 11 people on 10 bikes that did it, organized through a local forum.

155 miles on my Bonneville...from full tank to vapor. I use the gassing up as opportunity to rest and rehydrate also.

I still win though. More than twice as many hours, twice as far, and still no sleep. I probably shouldn't brag about being so irresponsible (danger to myself and others in my condition), especially when I critique my friend for driving tired all the time. |

Pensacola,FL to Palm Beach, FL - Roughly 650 miles. Not non-stop though. We took plenty of breaks. About 5 minutes every half hour. Cruised around 65-70.

Its nuts out here, No one in Houston uses a turn signal, they either do 15 under the speed limit or 15 over the limit. Doesn't help that the freeway system is a jumbled mess. I hate having to ride the freeway's but its the only way to get around here. You can usually take frontage roads for a bit, but you will always end up having to go on the freeway for a stretch

How far have you gone on your ninjette?
I live in Tampa now, but we'll be going to Miami next Monday. I talked to a couple of mechanics and they recommended that I bring some oil with me and lube for the chain. I wonder how far I can go with my little ninja. I hope to go to Atlanta, California etc...(one day). But for now Miami will do. I won't be taking the highway on my trip because I feel like I won't experience as much or see much taking that route.
soooooo. Tell me how far you've gone on your bike. |

It was scary and fun. First time ever riding the bike and i had to go 400 miles or so. I took a back road down to Melbourne and then realized it would take forever down US1 so i hoped on 95 and just tried to get back as fast as i could avoiding eveything

Oh ok i see 60 on the map. Yeah looks like one of those quiet 2 lane highways. Definitely a nice ride through a non-populated area once you hit lake kissimmee.

1150miles in 17 hours on the ninjette coming back from a mtb race in New Mexico. Not too bad when you consider I rode 1150 miles out there over two days then raced the mtb for 12hr then next day then all the way back home the next.
