Um... did the bike ride the rest of those miles by itself then?
My '07 was bought last October and now has 25,500km. Keep in mind, though, that it was in winter storage from two weeks after I bought it until early March AND I have another bike that sees regular use, otherwise it would have a higher odometer reading.

On my '83 FL(had since new) I have 72,000+. Keep in mind while thats not much, I also, up until recently had 27,000+ on my 1996 Buell S2T(had since new), and many more miles on my 60's Pan. I sold both the Pan and Buell in September to purchase another bike. Riding 3 bikes was wierd and getting wierder for me. Especially that beat me to death kick start, foot clutch, stick shift, 3 inch open primary belted antiquated technology Pan. If it only had an electric start maybe I'd kept it.So now I just have 2 again. The Buell was a midlife crisis thing. I saw most of my friends turning 40 yo, exchanging there wife of 15 years in for 2 20 yo's and paying out the arse for years. I figured get a HD sport bike keep the wife and only pay 10,000$ once.
I thought I would miss the Pan and the Buell but the excitement of having my first sidecar HD keeps me from remotelly thinking about them.

My 04 Road King only has 22000 on her...but when i got on her in 06 she only had 2400 so I guess not too bad.

traded in my 03 sporty which I put 49,500. I now how an "07" Street Glide which I now have 20,000. I don't know how much I have put on the back of my husbands Road King but I would say close to 30k (when I had to have surgery on my hands or just feeling lazy). But back tracking even further I could not even say. I can say this...it was all good!
