Default Whos got the highest mileage SV?>

Looking down at my clocks this morning in traffic, I wondered:

whose got the most mileage from an SV?

I usually change my bike around the 6-7000 mile mark, but just how long does an SV last?

There are some real high milers on here.. 6-7000 is nothing.
Even mines on 26000 after 4 years, though thats set to go up a bit.

Yeah, Marks on about 140k I think, but I think only the frame, tank and wheels are original, he's modded or replaced just about everything else

I have less than a tank of gas to go before I hit 105,000. Still on original motor and orginal rear shock... replaced the clutch as preventative maintenance just a couple k ago, rebuilt front suspension with progressive springs @ 62k

Actually I think it's only the frame (and that's probably been modified) .
