Probably a bit late for this topic but my CB77 has 130.000miles on it. it is a one owner, me. It is on its 4th crankshaft, unknown bore size except it is bored to 350. Carbs except for main jets are original, also most of the gearbox. Not to sure of the clutch. Averages about 67 miles to the gallon, British size gallon. Nowadays with modern oils I change it at 1000 miles so I hope this current crank outlasts the others. roughly 30.000 life. So with a little bit of care and attention these bikes will last.
