I seem to be average. '98 6R 49k. 3rd owner bought 15 months ago with 42k on her. :)
Real bravery is being afraid but doing it anyway.

Average eh Brett?
I put 55000 on the GPX (16mnths), 51000 on the ZZR (17 mnths), and have put 7000 on the ZX9 (1.5 mnths). Got my L's in May 2002, so 3 years.
So that's only ~38000/yr average which isn't really that high.
Realistically I do 50000km/yr, but that average is reduced by serveral months off due to injury or sickness (wallet and body ;) )

If you have no fear, you're not going fast enough.
Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level, then beat you with experience.

My kms are embarrassingly high, but she purrs like a kitten.
99 Model. Had it since new. Which was actually Jan 2000 when I bought it, and as to date, I have done 141'233kms :-D Goes to show what a regular oil change can do to the life of a bike. Nothing major has been done to it. And I rub her down often ;-)

Recently, or at, like, 50,000km?

I'm so not looking forward to the time when my 6 eventually starts to make that particular rattle. Not trusting myself to be able to split and rejoin a camchain, it'll be split-the-cases time... eugh.
