In general was is the highest mileage a bike can have without an engine overhaul?  Just curious.  :cheers:

99,999 with proper care and maintenance, but it depends on the bike.  Some BMW's go 300,000.  Most larger-bore (600+), Japanese bikes I would suspect getting 90,000.
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

This sounds like a topic for GSjack to reply to.  If he doesn't, PM'em.
