I've been doing 60 miles a day for the last nine years with the whole catalogue of things happening.
Your milage I would expect a minor service and a major service every year. You should be able to get almost 12,000 miles out of the front tire and 20,000 out of the back. I'm getting 60 miles to the gallon at the moment which is mainly motorway.

Do the minor service yourself.

The good thing about that sort of distance is that the engine always gets warm and the battery is always fully charged.
