Hmm, if I and my bike last long enough then my MultiStrada will have about 170,000 miles up after 15 years ownership. I'm nowhere near the highest miler as recent threads have shown and I don't think 12k a year is OTT. That 851 must have been averaging just over 4k a year, maybe the owner had other bikes as well so he didnt use it in the rain, snow or salty roads. The fact that it's still going strong after 65k is a fine example of what can be acheived, if that's you want to do.
If people enjoy riding their bikes so much, why dont they do it more
