Could anyone out there with both an hour meter and speedo give me an idea what your miles and hours are. I have a 2001 explorer with just an hour meter and kinda wondering what miles I might have. I realize everyone rides different, but just looking for an average. My riding style is mostly poking along 20 to 30 on trails with a little open road sprinkled in. Just love the git-go on this new 400.



Now 2001 Explorer 400

2000 Magnum 500
1999 Grizzly 600
1998 Grizzly 600
1997 Wolverine
1995 Timberwolf

10 mph sounds about right. I was thinking I had about 55 hrs on my Mag 500 with 600 miles when I sold it, but wasn't quite sure. Thanks for the feedback. Mudden in Mich.

I do about 75% trail riding, and 25% more open roads, and have 5500 miles on my Xplorer, and about 450 hours.
Quite a bit of my trail riding is s-l-o-w trail riding, though. Trailing cattle, where I sit still as much as I move along, at a cow's pace, about walking speed. Hope this helps some.

We have 1500 miles and 167 hours on our Rubicon. Our friends that have odometers and hour meters also seam to be around the 9 - 10 mph average. We mostly trail ride in all kinds of terain. Very seldom ever see even 35 mph unless we find a long strecth and blast off.
