My 2000 R1 is a testament to that. Over 50,000 miles. Did everything from a track day to drag strip a few different nights to an iron butt last summer and never missed a beat. I plan on giving it as much or more abuse this summer.

I have a riding buddy who had over 80k on his when it was stolen.


I've seen them go well over 100k with no issues.

i think honda has the fit and finish down pat, they may not be the fastest or prettiest, but damn they will last
