no .but its like anything mechanical its gonna break 1 day . I had put 45,000 miles in 2 year on a 06 zx14 never broke anything .. I replaced the chain, sprockets, filters , oil, gas , tires, had the valve cover off to check valves, no adjustments and I rode it hard... this was a street bike never saw a track until later in life and that's when things started breaking often .

32,000 miles and zero problems here. Replaced chain/sprockets at 20,000 miles. Installed the manual cam chain tensioner because I got tired of the start-up rattle.

Great bike, very reliable.

See my 08 has had a hard life it's now at 20k miles lots and lots of street racing lots of top end pulls. It's been turboed twice and used to run a healthy shot of nitrous now I have the bike back to 98% stock just looking for stock sprockets and it's gonna be my everyday rider/sport touring bike.

I hope to get another 20+k trouble free miles out of it

INTIMIDA2OR is over 110K on his & mine is at 101K. Change the oil/filter regularly & take care of the other consumables (chain, sprockets, pads) and you will have many happy miles.
