There was an NCS'r that started doing track days on his CBR at right around a quarter million miles. Honda car engines were just big motorcycle engines for years.... those things can go forever.

I guess what I meant to say was I've never heard of s sportbike with that many miles. Usually they get crashed or have mechanical problems due to abuse or neglect long before that. I could see a Honda racking up that many but a Kawasaki? LOL. JK  :D

I have a '76 Kaw KZ900 with 168,000 on it.  Never abused (much) ;) still stock, still fires up and runs like a champ.  I did have to put a new top end on it at 127,000 though.
