well, i am a little less worried now, everyone made fun of me for buying a bike with alot of km on it... i think i will hold onto my bike for anothe rcouple of seasons before getting a newer one.... as long as the american market doesn't collapse, and the entire world ends.... lol

There's no way a 600cc engine will go anywhere near 100k miles.

Agreed, maintaining and not beating the crap out of it is key to making almost anything last.

Believe it dude.They're out there.I know a guy who has an F4i with over 100k miles and it still runs great.Call it a "bike stereotype" if you will.

Most people who get 600s are dumb kids who have a habit of bending their bikes around trees.Another thing is that these F3s were hot during their contingencydays.Bounty hunters raced these into the ground.

No bike in existence has a tougher valve train either.

Go educate yourself b4 you spout off with BS you evidently know shyt out about again.

I seen quite a few with nearly 100k on em. Mine has over 50k on it and runs stronger now then when new. Only reason a bike wont go 100k+ is abuse n not being taken care of.

its called blunt just like life. If you cant handle a lil bluntness, well go back under the rock where 600cc engine cant get near 100k because here in the real world its very possible n happens more often then you seem to think.
