My '83 R80G/S had already done 200,000 km including a 4 year RTW trip two up with its original owner and wife when I bought it. I did an overhaul followed by a 32,000 km trans-Africa trip without a problem. As has been said it is how it has been treated and what work has already been done to it that matter, not mileage. It has now done 280,000 and is still my everyday transport.
