A little over 30,000. That’s in spite of work travel and my first ever hospital stay. I was fortunate this year. I average closer to 20,000.

41,343 for me. Felt like less though as 14K were in a 2 week period.

Disappointingly this year, was my worst since I started riding. I'm in the east coast mecca of motorcycle roads, yet I can't manage to make enough time to get anything useful done. This is the first year where a set of tires has lasted me more than a season. If it wasn't for the winter, I'm not even sure I'd have to change the oil!
A moderate mileage year for me 9500 miles all on the FJR. I have stopped riding locally as it is too much a pain in the ass suiting up for a short ride. I now do 2-3 long rides yearly. Spring to the southwest and fall to northwest. Great roads and few turistas.

I find this thread fascinating. Utterly incredible, I tell ya!
Locally, with the exception of my closest riding buddies, I don't know ANYONE that rides more than 3,000 miles a year. I suppose it's never really that far to the local pub. By comparison, my 11,xxx mileage in 2019 would seem quite thorough.
But in this group? Please. At 11K, you guys are just getting warmed up. Here Here!!

14,563 for 2019 with 159 days ridden. Logged days every month of the year, but just barely as there was only one rideable day in Feb. So that's at least 4 years of consecutive months ridden. I'm no BIkerChuck -- at least I have a LITTLE common sense. 
78,531 on the '15 as of Jan 1.
That's 2 more days than '18, but 1300 fewer miles. '17 was a good year with 19,825 miles on 212 days.

28,422 for me last year. Probably the majority of those miles are commuting miles between late March and early December. Which brings the odo to read 91,422 on my '15 bought new labor day weekend '16. Of course for "some people" that would be done in 11 months.

This seems like a perfect opportunity for a mine-is-bigger-than-yours thread. This was my best year yet on the FJR. I put in 14,250 miles or 129 million equivalent dick lengths. This was after installation of a PEZ-Viagra dispenser on the handlebars. That really helped to stretch out the distance. I will spare you the photos.
OK I'll play

There is a big difference between being employed full time and being retired.
Though "Employed full time" in the Southern US enables lots of commuter miles, Retired in the South seems to me to provide the best opportunity for overall mileage per year.
I'm expecting great things out of you next year Pants! Some Cajun once told me "When we Ride, We Ride!"

Normally I average around 50k miles a year.
Well this year was my best year yet (As I attempted the IBA's "100k Year")
My last 3 certs came in today making these numbers official.
112,127 Certificate Miles for 2019124,770 Over all Miles for 2019
BTW: I worked full time and just rode weekends with the exception of July (in which I pull off the "Longest Month" ((32,557 Miles))
I lost all of August when the '08 went down.

Total of 43,505: 21,045 on the 2018 FJR and 22,460 on the 2013 FJR. I tried selling the 2013 when I bought the new model, but no one was interested in a bike with150K miles on it, so I kept it. And very glad I did as I’ve put an additional 34,000 trouble-free miles on it since then. You’re right, Big John, being retired in the southern US does allow for a bit more saddle time.
