Just over 21,000 on my 2000 RSV.
Bought it about 4 years ago with just under 9000 miles on it so I've used it a fair bit, although it's still under avg miles per year. :thumbup

The guys with highish mileages, like CK etc....any issues so far on the original lump at those mileages?.
You don't hear much about high mileage Rotax V990's so it would be interesting to hear any thoughts.

Bought my 06 model 18 months ago with 1500 miles done, now on 13000..Apart from crap back brake, problems zero..
Mileage is a big thing these days with bikes, if you dare use them, you slash the value.. Don't think I'll buy one so new next time, as its too big a financial hit..Dealers look goggle eyed if you turn up with a bike to p/ex with over 10k showing..
Talking about high mileage problems, the Rotax engines seem to do high mileage if serviced correctly with very few problems.. The Jap stuff not always as bullet proof as you imagine if they have some miles put on them..My R1 ate its gearbox at 18k which is common on the R1/R6 range..My ZX9 Blew its head gasket at 18k, so did two friends same model, and another had a cracked cylinder head. Thats weight and cost saving for you, in a market dominated by low mileage toys..

bought it with 15k now its got 47k, plenty of life in her, at that mileage clutch plates were only just blueing, only had starter solenoid fail. Still original motor, apart from the CER 57mm TB's of an 03. Keep it serviced and it should be good for a lot more and I really kick its arse everytime I'm out on it.Great motors!, when she eventually fails I'm going to slot a low mileage 03 motor in, spent too much on everything else to want or need to change, Cos most peeps change their bikes every year or so, people are paranoid about putting miles on.. I say fekkit thats wot they are there for!!
