Cheers Tongi, Just to give you an idea on what to expect from a genuine 45k km old late model FI Bird.....
If the 06 FI really has only 45k kms as hoped, then you should have no issues until around 72,000kms when the stator/alternator might burn a coil out........(the on dash voltmeter will be a true friend by alerting you to this slowly happening, and might save getting stranded by the side of the road).
The next consumable issue might be a water pump seal starting to drip some coolant at about 95,000kms ( I noticed a loss of coolant in the catch tank). The new water pump has a drip hole in a better location so drops will be easier to see on the floor.
The cam chain & tensioner can last 114,000kms...... if ridden well and maintained properly. It will rattle loudly and continuously when finally it does wear out.
Some BB's that cop a flogging (abuse) and/or don't get coolant and oils and brake fluids changed regularly will wear items out sooner.
Your valve clearances likely won't need checking until 100,000kms....... I checked mine every 24k kms and they never changed from new (a lot of work for no result - which is good
). After 100k kms I noticed some wear as the cam chain started to run out of life. Even then, the only valves needing adjustment were the two exhaust valves on the cylinder closest to the cam chain - all the rest were still nice and wide per specs.....
So you can see, BB's are pretty easy to live with if they just get some maintenance - see the handbook for Honda's guidelines..... but from my experience with two BB's over 18yrs (and after being coached by my cousin the bike mechanic) is - Iridium plugs every 45k kms, oil & filter 6k kms (I use Motul 5100 or Motorex Top Speed 10w50 - not the higher spec racing oils), airfilter when dirty, coolant every 3 yrs, brake & clutch fluids every 2 yrs, fork oil every 20k kms, wheel bearings get a grease every 40k kms, chain and sprockets when worn (my oem chain & cogs were good to 100k kms! - very high quality - lubed when they look dry & shiny).
At 129k kms my brake rotors are original and not badly worn though I have cleaned the pistons and greased the slider pins every 2 yrs. Still have original brake hoses and the DCBS works fine - does take two people to bleed the brakes though.
Not easy work for inexperienced DIY'ers, but not hard if shown how to do it..... and BB doesn't need any work once serviced and tuned and fairings put back on..... until the next service is due...... usually........ it all depends on the quality of the workmanship and how it is ridden....
.
I run 36psi F & 38psi R - not Honda's BS 42/42 F&R pressures. I'd recommend finding an experienced mechanic that knows how to balance the throttle bodies using a set of fluid filled columns (commonly called fluid manometers or mercury columns) as they get really smooth results. FI BB stays in tune for a long time though.
Geeze, only 45k kms........ that should feel like a new bike - oops, forgot to mention, the stock roller ball bearings in the steering stem only last 35k kms - tapered rollers last 60k kms if not over tightened. You can check for steering stem 'play' by securely propping the front wheel off the ground (use center stand and carefully place a jack under the sump drain plug - low fuel weight helps when doing this - and then you can grip the front axle and gently push-pull checking for play, and also rotate the handle bars checking for notchy steering....... but your's should have been done 10k kms ago if that 45k kms is true...so you should be sweet
Sorry got carried away - too much info too soon...... enjoy the BB and don't be worried about problems at this stage
