(The OT that just won't die)
thinking about upgrading my little old v twin honda to either a mid size sport tourer no bigger than 1000cc or similiar size dual sport at the road oriented end of the equation. priority's are year round comfort (about a 20 min 100kmh commute all weather) and the ability to do a trip away two up occasionally. still researching bikes on more appropriate forums but all general advice welcome, chockstone sometimes does really seem like the source of all information.
but what i really want to know is how many kms is a lot/to many on a 2nd hand bike i would be doing most if not all my own servicing and have a reasonable handle on most things 4 wheeled but the comparitively high revving nature of bikes makes me unsure about their longevity.
