I have a 70000 miler. Currently off road due to a car, tarmac, intereface. Engine is pretty stock. Other than a few issues witht he clutch its fine. I have got a spare lump that needs sorting, but i think im just going to have the casings off it for powder coating.

I once picked up a bike from DK in Newcastle under Lyme and while I was putting all the paperwork away, a big guy was paying for a service on his ZZR1100. The guy behind the counter then said "same time next month ?" Don't know what the intervals on those are, but monthly services = big mileage = respect (and big bills too probably !!!).

Was probably booking it in for something else in reality .

A mate of mine had a ZZR11 that had over 140k on the clock and was still going strong until a 7.5 tonner squashed it while it was parked up!
