Approaching 120k on my 04 survivor silver. Got it at a junkyard so I'm not sure about any rebuilds but it is the original engine, original cat, no sohn (going in this month), fuel that was in it was not premixed, oil was 5w20 (or very close, hard to tell with a finger test).
As far as I can tell it appears to be still alive on rec service only. Junkyard had it cause it was flooded (or dead as they called it). Sounds to me as if the original owner ( I am second) didn't do a lot of research, just did as the manual told him to.
So even people not involved with the rotary community can keep these running well over 100k
