So how long does a GZ250 last? Miles I mean.

Assuming moderate riding (no superslab at all), and good maintenance, how many miles will one of these engines go before it needs a total overhaul? Anyone know? Anyone here have a high mileage GZ? Is it the engine that goes, or something else? I'm not talking about chains or tires or stuff you expect to have to replace, but basic stuff that could make it not worth the money to fix.

It sure is a fun ride! I've been leaving the bigger bikes home a lot ever since I got it.

My local bike mechanic told me 60,00-65,000mile but I havent talked to a gz rider. I am curious myself.
