Just as a "sister" poll to the "Average miles per day" one.

Home (DeKalb, Il.) to Cheyenne Wells, Co. (998 mi.), on the way to the Durango rally. Didn't add up the mileage till the next morning, or I would have kept going at least 2 more to make the magic #.

1120 miles from Culpeper, VA to Eureka Springs, AR in 20 hours this past May. Got my Iron Butt SS1000 for that one. Proud of it, but it was one loooong day? <g>

Bike is 2001 Vulcan Classic with Nomad bags ("NoClass) and Mustang saddle. Comfortable bike, smooth solid ride performance, and dead-nuts reliable. Didn't hurt that I got 42 - 44 mpg at highway speeds.

1600+ in 24 hours on a BMW R1150RS, 1457 miles in 24hrs on a Suzuki DL650 VStrom, 1366 miles in 24 hrs on a Kawasaki Voyager XII, 1489 miles in 24 hrs on a Yamaha Royal Star Venture, 1229 in less than 24hrs on a BMW K1200LT. The Vstrom has been the easiest to do high mileage days on for me. I won't list the other bikes with more than a 1000 in a day.
