I figured someone would ask which time?

I love my 103...just turned over 13k this morning.

If it is a well built motor like the 103's were you should have no trouble getting 100k out of your motor. Some will say more but you should be able to count on that. The problem you may have is you have the dreaded 110 motor. The jury is still out on that.

From experience, both of my 110's (same bike is key here) have had major issues at under 5000 miles.

Annually if you ride at Hoist Speed.

When we couldn't get premium gas in MV, we added "Liquid Howie" to the tank.  Ran great!

The clowns at the MoCo who are responsible for the CVO110 should get life, with no possibility of parole.  JMHO of course.
