paddle Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 Hi guys when I bought my 750m engine it was fitted in a low rider frame which was an unfinished project i was just sorting through some parts tonight and I came across the reg number from the engine thought I would check on dvla site shock horror 37k miles on the last mot but the biggest shock was the 72k miles it had on it the year before.wonder how much life it's got left in it Quote
wraith Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 The problem is, how many different bikes/clock's has it been in/had on that engine? Last year the clock's I had on my GS had 54,000 on them, this year different clock's it's got 18,000 how much milage it's got for real I don't know. Quote
paddle Posted July 10, 2020 Author Posted July 10, 2020 I saw the original bike before it was butchered for its bits that was about 6 years ago and it was a good runner. Quote
Tombola Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 Depends how wore up it is, which then depends on how it’s been looked after, IMO miles isn’t really that good of a measure. Can you check the compression? Quote
Captain Chaos Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 Odo reading means fuck all. And even if it does, I'd rather have a well looked after 50.000 miler than an abused 10.000 miler. 2 Quote
paddle Posted July 11, 2020 Author Posted July 11, 2020 When I get the engine in the frame I will do a compression check the engine looks really clean Hardly any engine paint missing just the exhaust studs needed some drilling Quote
