One of the guys who was at the hotsprings ride a few years ago, had over 100,000 miles on an original 1100F engine.
I kind of feel bad that I do not remember his name/nic.. |

My buddy, Pete, is the original owner of his 1981 CB750K and has 122K miles on it. |

Burns a little oil, and beginning to leak around the head gasket. If you saw Pete ride, you would understand why.  |

My "neighbor", MikeL, had 106,000 miles on his 1100, before it all came to an unceremonious end in Northern CA.. I still bump into him from time to time, mostly at Backfire Moto Bike night in Seattle.. I tried to convince him rebuild the motor and stick it into a 750F frame..

Mine has 104465km.The last 35km ( yes 35km are mine) the the motor decided it had had enough. What a great buy hey, hence the thread rattle in the engine. But, yes there is a but. It is about 1 week away from a complete rebuild, top to bottom, Merry Xmas to me.  |
