I have a 1991 GSXR-1100 and it has 32,000 miles on it. How much longer do you guys think it will go for. Thanks

Just depends on how the 32,000 miles were put on the motor. Any modern motorcycle motor should reach 100,000+ if taken care of properly and all maintenance has been done. You hear of this all the time with BMW bikes. The only difference is that the BMW rider as a whole tend to be more mature riders and do not rag the bikes out.

32,000 miles is nothing,as long as it has been well serviced.
A friend of mine had a 1990 gsxr1100l with 115000km's,he had to spend a little bit of money on engine work but nothing to major.

Pretty of life in the girl yet. I would think
about replacing the timing chain soon though.

My '90 1100 L has 40k on it and runs as sweet as the day it was made. In fact It chewed on a couple of blades this weekend http://forum.gixxer.com/ubb/images/icons/grin.gif

I have an '87 750 with 82,000 miles on it..I I've tried to blow it up for two years now, owned it since it was new, flatslides,cams the whole works 121 HP on the dyno at 75,000 miles on motor. unbeleivable....timing chain is starting to sound strange and second gear is starting to whine a little. Have 1100 motor waiting to go into the frame...if this thing will ever quit..

They will last a long time. If you take care of them. I have 13,000 on my 1216. I have been waiting for it to break http://forum.gixxer.com/ubb/images/icons/smile.gif So I can go bigger.
