like most have been sayin maintenance is the key. If you were looking at a car with 35k would you consider that high i wouldn't. Hell thats just barely broke in to me. I think the area where you live has a lot to do with it also in florida were you can ride a bike all year long 35k is proably nothin but up here in NY I know a lot of people would say thats high. A maintained motor will go 100k miles all day

Besides maintenance, how a bike was used is only everything. Someone who rode it like he stole it, w/ lots of stop and go traffic in high temps, frequent jackrabbit starts w/ very large rider and passenger, and towing a trailer --35,000 miles will seem like a lot.

my 92 had 33k miles i bought it. I was thinking it was low. My goal was to buy a bike under 50kmiles. I would have no problem buying a bike with more miles if the price was right. But bikes with 70-100k are the same price as bikes with 20-50k miles.
