I turned 76,000 today and the 1999 clutch problem was the only one I had.  Kawasaki makes subway trains for NY, NY; first scheduled maint. is 200,000.  Motorcycle reliability is a cinch for them.

Thanks for the replies guys. The price seems to be good, $2,800.00 for the bike. Like I said, in the pictures the bike looks nice, it's the beige color with black frame, and has a tan colored solo seat on it as well. I might have to drive over and take a look at it...it's just that it's almost 4 hours away from where I live. Thanks again for the replies!

no 20k nowadays is nothing. But it does depend upon maintenance over that 20K .

 I wouldn't think twice about buying it if the price was within reason. I bought mine this year with 17,000 on it and have 21,000 on it now. Lots of guys buy Drifters and don't ride them much it seems. There are a lot of them out there with 5,000 miles or less.
The only thing I would look at if it were me is the chain and sprockets to see how worn they are.

Hi all,

I'm thinking about buying another Drifter but I haven't seen the bike yet in person, just pictures. It does seem to look great but it has 20k miles on it. Is that considered a lot for an 800cc bike? According to the owner it's been taken care of properly with all oil changes, maintenance, etc. It's been garage kept as well all the time. I'm just wondering if 20k is a lot or not.

Thanks
