Montegobry | I bought a 2004 with a little over 12k on it a few years ago.. it's got almost 20k on it now. Just had to put tires on it. Love it. |

Don't let the high mileage bother you. I have 65245 miles on my '06 FZ6. Other than tires, I have only had to replace the chain at 53000 miles (dealer said sprockets looked like new). If you buy, I suggest you break in this gently ridden bike as if it were new. Definitely start using the revs the engine was designed for, but hang on tight when you do!!! And also ask to see the service history, talk is cheap! |

high milage is possible means no high pick up is possible.because milage reduces the pick up of the bike. ____________________________________________ Budget Hotels In kanyakumari | Kanyakumari Budget Accommodation | Kanyakumari Tourism |

more details below. What engine or drive train problems lie ahead? How many miles will these engines go? How much should I plan on spending in the 1st year? As many as you ask them to with proper maint. and care as much as you can afford, mods come quick and most don't come cheap! |
