There are a couple on here with well above a 100k. Stcok internals I believe, nothing major with the drivetrain.

Just rolled past 114000km on my 99VTR.

Stock internals except APE CCTs....jetted&piped.

Still haven't had to adjust the valves.

Sorry, only 11,500 miles on my 98 SH. Glad to see they are running over 100K though.

Thats great, to see someone who has a bike with over 100 k on it. I was tolfd it was a reliable bike. I love the bike, great to drive and suits me.

I hope my bike can pass 100k also....

Mine has only gone 14000 kilometers, that is about 9000 miles???

Last year a guy posted 137k miles with the original motor. From what I've heard it still runs great today.
Mine has 16k so far.
Keep the valves adjusted, block off the emissions valve, keep fresh oil, and install manual cct's and they run forever. The only thing I worry about is cam chain stretch after 80k.

I've got 49,000 on mine. And still running the factory CCT's just not the original ones. I believe it's on its third set but unsure. I have manuals to go in it some time.
