I was just curious about the mileage that people have on their MV's. I have a 2001 MV. It will be a year at the end of April. I've got 10,000 miles on it. the only issues I've had are the following

1: Belly pan burning because of the heat (still waiting to see if MV is going to address this before I replace it myself)

2: Had to replace the clamp on the hose to the fuel pump.

3: had to bleed the rear brakes twice cause it seems like air gets in there.

Outside of that I've had no problems what so ever. great bike looking forward to a lot more riding this year.

I had a 2000 MV and put about 4,000 miles within a 9 months period (including a 1,000 mile round trip from Phoenix, AZ to Los Angeles, CA), until it was destroyed by an X5. During the 9 months of ownership, I had two oil leaks, stalling problems, excessive vibrations, and peeling heat sheilds. A majority of the problems where addressed during the first two months of ownership.

I currently have had the 2002 MV for 3 weeks and have 350 miles on it. No problems as of this date. :)

MV warranty replaced my burnt belly pan and right side lower, no charge.
