I am curious what kind of miles per month (of ownership) people are driving.

My GTS: 2400 miles/owned 4 months=600 miles/month.
My Stella: 3500 miles/owned 12 months=291 miles/month

Just curious

Only about 300 miles the first month, but it's currently trapped in the garage due to my landlord's yard sale this week.

I hope to ride a lot more starting Monday!

I am putting about 100 miles per week on the GTS. I have only had it for 3 weeks though. I upgraded from an LX50 that I put 700 miles over the course of 1 and a half years. By getting the bigger scoot I am able to take it everywhere and not worry about roads with 55 mph speed limits. This encourages me to use it everyday rather than only occassionally like when I owned the LX50.

Miles per month?
I ride when I can. In summer I can do 500 miles per moth. When school starts I ride on weekends and some evenings. I wish I could ride every day but it doesn't always work for me.

How many on the Perego?? There's where you are going to get the best gas mileage.

Actually, we did squeeze them out today and ended up riding 50 miles in search of hanger steak.

Alas, 'twas not to be.

With all the other responsibilities I have, I manage only about 500 km per month. That is mainly work commuting, and the occasional scoot out of the city (when I am not the family chauffeur)

18 months and about 8400 miles (that's about 470 miles/month) but if you take out Nov - Feb it's more like 600 miles/mo. I thought it would have been higher. I'll get working on it!

(the scoot should hit 10,000 in a week or two!)

During the summer I have put on about 1200 a month. This fall probably about 600-800. I work out of my home so no commute but I take it around the metro area to attend my meetings, go to the gym, grocery runs and of course joy rides.

About 500 miles a month, though that will slow down considerably when the snow starts to fly.

lomunchi,

BRRRR! Just got back in from a ride and kind of getting that frozen thing goin. Wow it's only Sept 11th and it feels like Halloween weather. Say it ain't so.

I'll send you a PM and let's see if we can hook up for a ride before the snow flies.
