There is much more to life expectancy of the engine than just the speed or revs. Maintenance, do you drive the engine on short or long distances, cooling, oil...

For example, I have read the study showing that damage incurred while starting the engine is equal to damage done in 80 kms of highway driving.

Remember that the next time you start any vehicle you have...

Third owner of a zx/50. I've had it modified for 2 years now, and it is stronger than new. (2004 model)
