^^ What he said! If it was not abused, it will last for a loooong time. I have a stock GS that just turned 177,777miles, and runs like new...well, a little better with Phenolic spacers, synthetic oil, engine groundwires, and a cone filter.

What are engine groundwires and how do they help? My engine is grounded to the body, of course.

lol im used to calgary only sites, I moved to Calgary ( live in the NW ) and yeah it doesnt seem to be abused has a 168k original km's on it. Today is brake day (needs all new brakes something fierce) and that lever that pops the trunk and fuel door. trunk opens but the two are siezed together so one opens and the other doesnt. so off to pick a part today aswell to track one of those down.
