    High mileage VFR

    My 1990 VFR 750F has 120,028 miles and is still running strong. I bought it at 46,000. I had some trouble with the rectifier/regulator, like everyone else, but it has been a great bike. Nitroblue Investment

    My 1998 VFR just went over 87000 and still runs great. I sold my VF1000R with just over 175000 on it back in 2003.

    I know there was a long distance courier in the UK who racked up big miles on a 5th Gen. Took 2 engines & 800,000 miles I think...
