Yea, thats mine and merlins bike. From the 3 speedometers i have had on mine i have put almost 10k miles on mine since March of 2015 (9298mi). Have to really keep an eye on it and all the associated parts. (Spokes, tires, wiring, signals). As long as you know there there will be a responsibility with keeping an eye on all the parts , I don't think there is any reason it shouldn't go beyond 25 to 30k miles. I'm probably using mines mostly on the open public roads as there is really no open public lands in the area. Have taken mine camping and is my favorite go to for errands such as the trip to the tax office today ( yes, emerikol I fixed the flat and straightened the chain). Still runs at the breakneck speed of 60mph.

Most of what you read here will apply to your bike. All these China bikes essentially work the same and share many parts.

Enjoy remember...pics or it didn't happen.

Oil always needs the certification ...JASO-MA for wet clutch operation , as the cylinder and the transmission share the same oil which is 1 quart. Read all you can on this site and change it often for the first 250 to 500 miles

There are lots of folks who live and breath this stuff and are always looking for a challenge. Post all you want, everybody is really cool here which is why it's a popular site. I have always said there is enough collective brainpower to take us to mars from this site. Literally worldwide.
