I have a ZZR that's clocking up the miles like a fat kid eating cake, and at this rate will have about 25,000 kms on it by the time I sell it. However, another rider's GT250R Hyosung will have about 2000 km on it by the time they sell it.
The bikes have both been serviced regularly by Causeway Motorbikes. Both in excellent condition. The ZZR was ridden over long distances regularly (100 km+) and was used for daily commutes taking roughly 25-30 minutes each day. The GT250R went for the occasional long ride but the majority of the 2000 km are daily 2 minute trips, meaning the engine has been running cold for the majority of its life and knowing the rider's habits wasn't given time to warm up before being ridden a little to relatively hard (I keep saying it's a crime to turn the thing on for such a short ride and I'd rather ride a pushbike than do that to my bike).
So here's the question:
Which would you buy over the other? There's no "Neither" or "Other" options for a reason.
EDIT: Assume the two are the same price.
