            Seriously?

            When I bought my XJ1100 last Sept it had 5200 miles on it. I put 5,000 miles on it in 6 weeks.

            It now has about 16,000 on it.

                Bought it new in 78, now has 49.1K miles. No major issues except dam exhaust replacements. Wrench who just did the carbs couldn't believe how strong and solid the motor was.

                Interesting how many of these have around 50K miles......
