Just wondered who has the highest milage quad. Mine is not a big bore and it doesn't go 80 mph but it has well over 3000 miles and hasn't cost me a cent except for oil changes and a few plugs. I can only say it does what I want and I never have to fear it not bringing me out of the woods.

Well I dont own it anymore but My old 1988 300 Honda had
(I estimate) about 16000 to 17000 miles. I can only base it on average of what I normally ride (2000 TO 2500) miles a year now.
I actually rode it more than that I think because I had more time. I sold it to a friend at work and he still uses it. I did and still do all the maintainance on it and to this day it has never had a major problem. It has had a few cv boots, 2 sets of brakes, front drum seals, a driveshaft boot on the swing arm and 1 set of wheel bearings, on the right front. He bought it in 1995 so I dont have any idea how many more it has now!

My previous ATV, a Yamaha BigBear 99 had 8000 miles after 2 1/2 years. I only rided it during the winter months, doing about 300 miles every weekends.
