I own a 550 K3. All that's left of my original bike is the frame and rear hub 😁😁😁😁

It will likely last another 100 years if looked after. I am just a sucker for old engineering!!!
Whether it is a Ransomes Lawn Mower, a Myford Lathe, Fobco Drill, Startrite Bandsaw etc etc.
I guess that is also why I am attracted to the older Honda's as they are built beautifully, and need to be cherished.
