His death was unfortunate and untimely. I hope that by being declared
brain dead, he was a candidate for organ donation, and that the family
consented to this. It would be one of the few positive outcomes that
could occur from this tragedy.

You call that mileage? My ex bought a used Daytona 600 at the beginning
of May, it had 1100 miles on the clock - she px'd it against an SV650
three weeks ago with 8,500 miles recorded. The Bandit 650 she px'd
against the Daytona was 18 months old, she bought it new and did nearly
20,000 miles. I think she's clocked up an additional 2000 miles in the
last three weeks on the SV650.

In my garage is a Daytona 955i that I occasionally use, I use my SV650
out of preference for getting around locally. I've clocked up nearly
7,500 miles on the Triumph in a year, before the SV there was a Bandit
600 and that clocked around 9,000 miles alongside the Triumph, not
forgetting the 1,000 or so I've done on the SR250 in the past 3 months
and the 2,000 I've done on the SV650 since I put it back on the road 9
weeks ago.

That's mileage.

At this point, I know not only what's coming in this post, but almost
every post to follow in this thread. And I'm sure I'm not alone.

Lozzo , it's not about the mileage . It's about the *smileage* . For a
man that works 40 a week , rides to work most days , and has a ton of fun
out in the shed makin' parts on his lathe for his friends in the evenin's ,
it ain't so bad .
I'm not in a contest , I ride for pleasure .
You apparently feel a need to compete . Go right ahead , I'll watch from
the sidelines .

As opposed to the UK where, you take a written test by tapping the
answers on a screen?

Or, in some states, take a test.

Apart from the CBT required in the UK, which is frankly a piece of piss,
it's not really much different is it.

You've done the UK and your crash record isn't exactly flawless, is it?
