I have 120,000km on mine. Motor still going strong. Good compression.
Have broken the gearbox and 2 starter sprag clutches early on. Last 80,000km trouble fee.
It's over at motohaus now having a re-fit and carb rebuild and I expect it would do another 100,000.
Replace the cam tensioner blades evry 60,000 is good management too.
