I have a 93 and it has like 19,000 miles. How long do you think it will last if I take care of it? Who has the most miles?

About 150K miles on an 89.  Odometer stopped a few months back at 142K.

Man I was never even close ... and last month (OK earlier this month) I hocked that GS at 48K ... but hey those 48K are the most talked about miles probably ... ~5-6 years ago there was this guy from portugul that had 100K + on a 92, and yea sprinklerhead with 150K ... hey have you rebuilt it ... Or what all have you busted and swapped out ... Mine broke only like 2-3 things in its life with me. Starter clutch leading to goats was the biggie, I also lost a CCT, and the right side ignition pick up piece for 1 cyl ... that's it for failures ... the rest were stuff I screwed with and broke, or ignored and it expired ...
Cool.

...and that's where I come in with 818 miles ...that's right eight hundred and eighteen miles.  
I got it at the end of the season last year and haven't had time so far this season to ride much!  I put them all on in one month, so that's not too bad right?

Is there anyone with lower?  oh by the way  it's an 04'  all miles by me   :mrgreen:

The White Owl is an '89 and only has a little over 5K miles. I've only put a few hundred on myself since I only ride it around 4 or 5 miles at a time. At the rate I'm going she will only have around 7 thou or so in the next ten years. Jake D for President. Love the White Owl, Hawaii (almost broke my neck in a surfing incident there), and this forum.
