My point was not that it had a ton of miles on it or that the 220hp was bad for the motor, but that a bike like that is meant to be ridden and ridden hard, not pampered. If it were mine, it would have been ridden hard, then of the time came that I needed to sell it, I would be honest about it.
He turboed, regeared, lowered it and put 13k on it. You don't think he ever (not even once) ran it up to 5k rpm and dumped the clutch? Somehow, my definition of "pampered" doesn't include that type of behavior. Not to suggest that the bike couldn't take it, or is beat as a result, but "pampered"? I think not.
That being said, it does look like a pretty bike.
