How many miles are too many?

I'm new to this site but am looking at a 03 Interceptor with 30k miles on it. It's in good condition and they are asking $4,900. My question is this: Are 30k miles too many and does this sound like a fair price. They guy at the dealership said you could put 100k miles on this bike but I don't know. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

 

VFR engine easily good for 100k

You'll grow tired of bike long before you wear it out if you just do routine maintenance:biggrin:

 

Britians long distance courier put 850,000 miles on a 1990 VFR. 440,000 on the first engine and 415,000 on the second engine. He said he changed oil every Friday with the cheapest oil he could find.

According to that article, your bike you are considering is just broken in.

 

i road a 1993 vfr with 280000 km here in iSRAEL

and it runs greate i think the bike is still runing.

 

Thanks for the input guys. I'm going to seriously consider this bike since it sounds as if it can go for many more miles.

 

You can't go too far wrong at that price especially if you have any kind of maintenance history or warranty with it. You don't hear about too many mechanical issues on any VFR forum, in fact I think that is why the forum is sooo quiet! Try owning an Audi, then you'll have something to discuss almost every day. BTDT :smow: It takes agreat deal to hurt one of these bikes, besides crashing of course.
:biggrin:

 

Thanks for the help. I wanted to let you all know that I bought the bike and can't wait for some warm weather to start riding.
