Opinions on "high" mileage bikes
#17
10K? Who's definition was that? 10k has to be a typo. 100k maybe? I bought an Fz1 that had 52k on it, sold it a couple years later with 72k. Still ran perfectly. Over the years I've put 70 to 80k on plenty of bikes. Lee's RC51 has 117k on it. Still runs like new. If one is familiar with the Goldwing, BMW, Guzzi crowd, one's used to seeing plenty of bikes in the 100 to 300k range.
Anyhow, I have no issues. From an automotive standpoint, I bought a Dodge Challenger from a friend with over 200k that looked like it had maybe 30k on it. Put another 12k and flipped it for a tidy profit.
