Well I stepped up from a gixxer 600 and this was ALOT of bike to handle so I didn't go out on a lot of rides to begin with last year and then I took the tags and insurance off for winter a little early because I was working too much to ride. When I do ride its just for joy riding, I dont' commute to work or anything on it. Its just a past time for me so I didn't rack the miles up. Somebody hop on this thing, tell your friends! Won't find a cleaner busa!
