Not quite there. 66,000 miles. I just did a rebuild, but it wasn't necessary. I put a 1250 engine in my 883. But the engine was almost like new when I opened it up. The gaskets needed replacing, but I wouldn't hesitate to put that engine back together and ride it another 65,000 miles.

Sorry. I am only about a thrid of the way there. I just broke 50,000 miles on my 1999 XL883. No rebuild needed yet. Runs great. Doesn't leak a drop of oil and the exhaust doesn't have any smoke coming out. This bike is one of my very favorite of the bikes that I own.
