BMW riders put hundreds of thousands of miles on theirs, but they are crazy

depends entirely on how you care for it, and ride it, and how many times you rebuild the engine, and all of the other parts, you can keep a bike going forever.

You'll be lucky to get 1/2 the total mileage out of a bike that you will get out of a car. If you have a high power ricer, or anything made in America, cut that half in half.
