Clocked over 10k today on my 11 plate Tmax, but not too bothered after seeing this http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/bikes ... GN-3030434

Wow!!!!! That must be some sort of record! I know some of the very early ones had some random failures, but its a good engine. My beloved mk2 had just passed 30K miles and was running sweeter than ever, before its untimely end. There again, if you service any modern engine properly it'll last for eons.
