90,000 klm on my 2009 Honda CBF1000. Except for replacing stater and rectifier, its been perfect (Honda gave an extra 8 years warranty on those parts). From short 300 klm day rides to 4000 klm touring, it does it all in super comfort. I added 3 hard bags, tank bag, heated grips, automatic chain oiler, higher windshield,engine guard. Last tires were Michelin Pilot 5 which can take a heavy load, handle well and last longer. . Lots of engine torque so I can be in 6th gear and go 40 klm/hr then accelerate and not need to shift. The 1000cc makes insurance a bit high.Amazing gas mileage.
