Engine reliability at that mileage?
has anyone got experience of cams/crank/rings etc with that sort of mileage?

Any advice or opinions welcome

Cheers

Engine is bulletproof. Oil consumptium might go up when the miles rack up (45000miles), but this depends on how harsh it has been ridden. If it becomes too much (say 1l:1000miles) you might consider a fresh set of piston rings (half a day's work for a pro mechanic).
