1200km on a 2011 Ninja 250 is perfectly fine! You can consider that low! Haha!
For engine size 125-300cc some would say 14k km+ is a little high? Or even at 10k km+.
But if the motorcycle was maintained very well the mileage wouldn't be too much of a factor in the motorcycle performance/lifespan.

I've done that in ONE DAY.
Not sure if the original poster is serious. Somewhere in the USA, is a Honda CBR600 (not sure which generation) with over 260,000 miles on it.
Ninja 250s are usually either crashed into oblivion or stashed away in someone's back yard and forgotten about, before the engine wears out. When they do occur, engine failures on those are usually due to someone failing to check the oil level. They do tend to burn a little oil, when ridden hard. It's normal, and nothing to worry about ... until a newbie rider who doesn't realize that they ought to be checking the oil level on a reasonably frequent basis, doesn't do so, and runs it out of oil, and then BOOM.

There is someone on this website with over 60,000 km on a cbr125.
I put over 40,000 km on my old one (which is, at last check, still running around somewhere) and I have 15,000 km on my new one. I've seen lots of them with 25,000 km plus.
:scratch:
You know it's a lot, if it's more than a bunch.
Here's the order for km;
None < almost none < barely any < very few < not a lot of < less than average < average < a little more than average < some < a bit of < a bunch of < a lot of < abundant < a ton < way too much < just enough.
Wow ... Now THAT is a lot!
Ya lol. And some of those were at tmp in the early days, when gary was doing tech. And ridin jordans old 92 cbr. Synthetic oil rules
I hope that's just hyperbole. Or are you claiming you circumnavigated all of Canada in a day?
HAHAH yes sorry i put 1200 mistakenly for 12000km. The price for the bike is 2600, so I think i will be taking it

12k isn't much. I tend to put over double that on my bikes each season, sometimes closer to triple....
