I am just rebuilding a pair of forks instead of just rlacing a weepy seal, the rear shock blew it's seal at 93k, other than chains, sprockets, oil, filter and pads with the regular tyre changes it's been marvellous for the nearly 5 years of ownersip. Rear caliper is now blue spot and I have spare front calipers but the ones on are original and only stripped and cleaned once. Discs have been changed twice, and recoated wheels fitted as the originals were scabby, they are now spares and may get knobblies fitted for the snow in case we get some
Lol
Wel done getting that many miles outa her, when I bought mine there was a new engine hanging in the frame and the old 1 in the corner of the garage with cylinder 3 after blowing up,it had 104,638klm on the clock but he didn't look after it at all.
