I have 390k on mine. . .(stock 12a) runs SWEET. Good everything.
It is possible some work was done 100k ago, but I dont think so. 390 - thats alot eh? Still, runs smooth, 180 kph easy, starts fine, no smoke (Only a little on the second start of the day - and only untill its going!) Good compression, great on fuel, how much they asking?

It probably doesn't need a rebuild, Because 300,000km's = 187,500miles.
So, im guessing that 12a still has alot of life left in it.
