Re: high miles
36K is nothing for Jap bikes.
I had put 45K on an SV650 ...track days, daily commuter.....hammered that bike on a daily basis.It never skipped a beat. I bet that little beast is still alive somewhere out there.

Re: high miles
I had a xs650 that I rode until the 98,000 mile mark. The only problem was gummed carbs and cops

Re: high miles
I thought that the most I have heard for a fizzer was around 45,000. Thats not a lot of miles if you take care of it. Mine has around 17,000 and growing.
ABS.......Keep riding.

Re: high miles
A friend of mine has a FZ6 with 85,000klms on it in 2yrs, with regular servicing etc
Only the usual stuff has been done such as shims under cams (tappets), brake linings, oil etc etc
No worries
