mileage not an issue with these bikes, there quite low tuned engines so last forever.
look at the running gear, for a general condition of the bike

Mines at 47k, how much is the big service going to be??
Depends on which dealer you take it to i guess,they do vary.
It will actually be an "every 24K" service which means fuel flter,possibly alternator drive belt,on top of the usual oils,plugs,filters etc plus set-up.
I do my own,with knowledge from here and ADVrider and parts from Motorworks.

Looks like you got yourself a nice clean bike that will last you for years. Enjoy
Definately a nice bike, in fact that used to be mine up until Jan this year and was mintier than a minty thing.

just picked my daughter up on my bike, i let it warm up to 2 bars first and set off down the moutain. 1st gear engine brake and there was a definate repetitive clunking going down over the moutain, pull the clutch in and it cleared. i am sure i could feel it in the bike too is this the norm if so what is it caused by if not what can i do. i still cant get the smile off my face though
