Just finished my first week on my ninja 250, posted up 470km doing local riding and some sprints down the DVP.

How much riding did you guys do in your first week after getting it?

Any good twisties around the GTA?
 
My first bike was a CBR929. Did a group ride in a tornado and monster rain/hail to Algonquin Park, I think it was 830km ish round trip. Was just following the brake lights in front of me, never knew OEM tires could stick that well in the rain!
 
I did the iron butt my first week....just kidding. Honestly I don't remember it was a while ago and I'm old, just remember smiling all week.
 
470 km? How far is your gym? ?
I probably did about 5000 km my first year. My first week was about 100. ?
 
I was 10, December 25, and my family dug an oval track for me in the deep snow in our back yard. 7 days, every day, almost all day. So, a lot.
 
First year of street riding I did 19,000 km. First week, I believe about 1500-2000 km's. It's about getting out there and getting experience. I came from many, many years of riding in the dirt before getting a bike for the street.
 
I picked up my first bike and rode it home while it was lightly snowing, probably only put about 200 kms on that first week. 18,000 kms for the first year.
 
No clue....too long ago. First scare was the S bend at Dundas and Bathurst the first day I owned a bike.
 
Never cared about how many km's I put on, just enjoyed riding it whenever I could, and the same is still true for me today. I generally have an overall idea of what I ride a year, but the only time I pay attention to my odo is when "service" appears in the dash.

Should service it before it says service.... Maintenance goes a long way.
 
I think I did about 1500km on my first week. I remember calling 3 days after I picked up the bike and booking a first service (1000km service) the following week... by the time I made it to the first service after I believe 11 days I had almost 2000km.
