Default Life of a Fireblade?

Hello folks.
I have just picked up a '93 blade in fantastic condition with 28,500 miles on the clock. My question is what kind of mileage will my blade do before it dies? This assumes regular servicing. I plan to do a fair bit of touring and i travel 600+ miles a week to work. I have no mods but may do something with the fuelling at some point........Any ideas??

I've got over 66,000 miles on my '98 and it's still going strong. I heard of a '93 that made it up over 250,000 miles! Just make sure you keep up on the maintenance and the damn thing should run for ever!

Ive heard of that 93 thats got well over 200 on the meter. Some guy took the damn thing on many cross country road trips. I envy a man with that kinda commitment to a 900!! Just like any engine, regular maint and careful "use" will make your engine last as long as you want it to. I mean common, its a HONDA!!! Congrats on the buy and fret not my friend, Honda has the hands down BEST reliability record in the industry. No contest, lol just ask all the guys drivin mid 90's GSXR's (I mean parkin.. or spendin a **** load of cash to keep em running)

Sure certain unwanted things will pop up now and then but its a HONDA man... known for its reliability.
Enjoy your new bike.
