Well I'm happy to say.... my bike and I have made it to the 200,000 mile mark!

Nice, congrats. Just goes to show you how dumb some people are for thinking bikes are disposable objects that will blow up past 10,000 miles. Clutches and rectifiers might wear out, but there is no reason why a bike engine can't last as long as a car engine. High rpm's don't make any difference if they were built to handle them.
