How many KM does your bike have on the clock. I am wondering at how long these thing last on average, so everybody please reply. Mine is at 52,000 EDIT: It had 44,000 when I bought it. It does not use oil between services either.
43000 this may sound like a stpuid question <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_redface.gif" alt="" title="Embarassed" /><!-- s --> but how can you determine the engine life from bikes that are still runing?
mine has about 52,000kms i guess all you can tell is what the average fzr has on the clock so if youre under the average, you can reasonably expect a bit more life simon
No question is ever stupid. I am interested to see if for example a lot die at 30-40k or whether there are many still running at 75k or 150k. It's just curiosity. I see a few bigger bikes for sale with over 100k on the clocks and been told that they would prob be still in good nick.
clock! Bought mine at 28000! A half summer and regal drivin until now, 32000! 87model! quite nice if you ask me!
It seems that if i an inline 4 250 is meticulously maintained it should have no problems reaching 100,000km's. The problem is that as recycled learner machines go, they tend to suffer a bit of neglect and as such i'd say the average motor life is ~60,000km's. You can abuse and engine and reduce it's effective life to as little as 40,000km's through lack of maintanence and rough riding, or you can ride it enthusiastically and maintain it well and get 80,000km's.
lol good luck tryin to find a fizzer with over 100k on the clock. Clock only goes to 99,999 then back to 0, so might be a bit hard to determine if a bike actually lasts that long btw mine is at 62k and goin strong
49xxxx and about to tip 50k....Still going very strong but only had it a few months so have no idea of the history....
88 xxx on the clock and then blew out the bottom end... oh and the top end at the same time (edit: dah) so thats the life time of my little fizzers engine. Im now working my way to replacing the engine from a 2kr exup, so should be on the road again in a month. happy fizzing.
Ooooh, Im coming second on just over 80k. Although the guy I bought it off replaced the cluster, he thinks its a few thousand k's under the reading on the speedo. Got it back yesturday from my first service and the mechanic is pretty impressed with its condition, he reckons its going strong.
My bike (3ln) has travelled 52000 km's and runs fine. Does not burn oil or rattle. When I bought the bike it was a bit of **** box, but time and a steady hand have turned it into an enjoyable little pocket rocket.
