how long do m8 cranks generaly last?

[Octanee]

so, im just wondering how long do they generally last, i know for some around here they talk like 6k km's is when you should consider replacing them, but how do you guys feel? sleds been kept fairly stock ish, never ridden hard or real long pulls or the sorts, driven by a 45 year old that likes to get around and rip up a few hills,

the dealer here tries to sware, oh you can go about 10k km's on a crank easy, but well, you just never know, so what do you guys figure? Thanks!

M8 and m7 so rare you could say that. I have only seen 2 M7 ever and 1 M8 and the M8 lost the end with clutch attached no bearing

I would refresh top end a 6K bottom end I would run till it stopped.

I can not even imagine having a sled that long. Upgrade more often and not worry about such things.

If it where a doo, you'd need an engine at 5000 miles. But cats cranks are damn near indestructible. I wouldn't worry.

Get a prenuptial for insurance, if it sits in the gayrage like most then it could make it to a silver or golden celebration!
