Default Highest Mileage

Hi,
I am wondering, what is the highest mileage you have ever seen on a Honda ATV? Model, Year? I rekon my 450 is pretty high, but maybe not in comparision to what some of you guys may have seen.

do you mean miles per gallon because i have pretty good fuel efficiency on my ds250, (around 15hours per 12litre gas tank, at 40km/h or 25mph=600km or 375miles/tank or 117mpg or 50km/l

My 400EX (no odometer) is 7 years old. We do a family camping trip at least every month, and we do a 50-70 mile group ride each trip. That alone puts me at 5,000, and that is ignoring the thousands of other rides it has been on. So, I am guessing 10,000+, absolute minimum. (All I have ever done to this machine is replace the rear axle bearings.........and very diligent maintenance!)

My buddy has an old Honda 300 ute he got in the 90's, and I am sure it has three times that.

Just had a 02 trx350TE come in today w/ 16,971.2 miles and 1,192 hrs on it.
I am sure there are quads out there w/ more miles on them but this is the first one w/ this kind of miles that I have seen. Some w/o instrument cluster may have more. That's a lot of miles since 02 if you ask me.
Came in b/c the shift pawl broke and it was stuck in reverse. I wonder just how many times that shift pawl had shifted a gear in almost 17,000 miles?
