Well, this is from the senior citizen's perspective: Not me, the bike. My '92 has 118K miles, put on over 8 years. In all that use, no major component has ever failed and the bike can still do over 100 mph, getting 40-50 mpg. What has needed fixing: the tach, as mentioned. A leak in the valve cover gasket. Two rebuilds of the starter and a new starter solonoid. A rebuild of the petcock. New rear wheel bearings and a new right pod switch. That's it.
In fact, I paid $2000 when I bought the bike in 2004, with about 20K miles on it, so the price quoted sounds ok for miles, so long as the bike has not been allowed to sit and rust or has been abused. Good luck with it. The NH750 is a great bike.
