12k miles isn't that much, so don't let that be your guide to a 'worn' motor.
After a refresh, your rings are still sealing to the bore. As you ride, it'll go up. When will this be done? Depends on how your motor's feeling. Generally between 500-1000 miles, at least for an automotive motor. The cross-hatching marks are gone within 20 miles typically, but they do keep sealing up for a time after that.

Turbos, Hondas, 4-bangers, what could go wrong?
