My 1995 ST1100 has approximately 42,000 miles on it. The bike was originally sold new in Cleveland OHIO and by the year 2000 it had moved to the suburbs of Chicago. I purchased it in 2003 with about 11,00 miles. The bike is adult ridden and hasn't been hammered to death. The climate where we lived in the suburbs of Chicago had above normal humidity, so drying out is not an issue. We have now moved to Santa Fe, NM and have only been here a couple of months. My wife and I are planning to do about 1,000 miles in Colorado this coming August. Routine service and new tires are a must before the trip. I have a good friend that works for Honda (in fact he is the second longest employee in Honda Motorcycles) and talking to him today he said that in my case, the age of the bike is more important than the mileage.
