New RSV owner needs advice

I recently purchased an '02 RSV R with 49,000 (yes, that's right!) miles on it. Suspension has been totally redone. Exhaust has been upgraded to an Akrapovic system. Bike has been adult riden and kept up perfectly. My question is, what can I expect from this bike in the near future as far as repairs go? I hear the Rotax engine may hold out to 100K miles. Any comments would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!:biggrin

Guy over on af1 forum has over 100 k on his

And you have an aprilia guru Micah at the austin af1 shop so you are well catered for.

Regular oil changes help keep them going for high miles

Ensure the valve clearances are checked

Don't try and start it on a low battery as the sprag clutch will fail..tell tale nasty noise on start up
