no mileage is excessive if the bikes been serviced "properly". theres a few peeps in here who have in excess of 50-70k on the clocks and their bikes still a good 'un.
the magic phrase here is "verifiable service history"....a bloke telling you it's been fully serviced by a dealer and then suddenly finding that the dealer must have forgotten to stamp the service log book is one of the oldest tricks in the book for ripping off newbies

as for the cbr i agree with whats ben said already so long as its been looked after there isn't a problem .......... the problem is knowing whether it has been looked after or not
