The FZ1 hit the big 50000 mile mark this week. I'm aiming to beat my previous high mileage bike, which was my old CBR600 (58000 in under 4 years). It's taken me four and a half years this time. Original clutch, brake discs, shock, etc. Can't see me chopping it in any time soon... ;)

The GS's at Bristol Training Centre, some are over 120000miles now... ::)

We've only taken them up to about 45000 miles, but no problems... ;)

My Yamaha TDM850 has clocked up 72K+
Checked the original clutch 2 weeks ago and still ok :) thought it was worn but seems its the cable thats stretched.

I remember 3X motorcycles telling me my bandit 1200 was "extremely high mileage and therefore not worth much" because it had 34k on the clock

I'm just going to ride the GS until it drops. See how far it goes.
