    High Miles?

    Hey guys!
    What would be considered high miles for the GS1100E machines?
    I realize how a bike has been maintained has a lot to do with longevity, but is there a number--20;000, 30,000, 100,000 miles-- that would be considered high mileage?

    Thanks!

    20k is low, 100k is high.

    2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.

      30,000 I start wondering how it's been looked after.
