Yes indeed well done to Boris for saying BearaOriginally Posted by davidgibson999
Anyway it turned into a 24 hour trip 100 miles yesterday and only 65 today. Yesterday the desire for porter and food took over and this morning my wife had a dodgy stomachso we came home at only 65 miles. So the total trip was 165, only going over 4KRPM to safely overtake whilst making progress
First time that we've been very far two up on it and it was delightful very easy to ride the bike at slower speeds with just a couple of turns on the pre load for the extra weight. As for the tank range I will have to go for another spin soon to get to the reserve light, I'd say I have a few miles before it comes on as even though we were two up I was riding a lot more conservatively than I usualy do....
BTW we stayed in Union Hall last night and had a great BandB called seascape where there is a garage if you want to park the bike safely. I left mine outside in their off road parking as I feel safe enough around here in any case...

There is a fine line between numerator and denominator.

Pushing the bike in and out of the parking area.And one mile... ?
YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

OK finally ran it dry today 238 miles...
Thats 6,6 litres for 100KM or 43MPG
Taking it easy all but for twenty miles...
Nickel arse
Not sure about the MPG but I normally have about 350km till the light comes on, playing by the road regs of Norway ie Fecking steep fines if your caught speeding my average was up to 400km before I reached reserve- that with panniers and camping gear, solo
Amazed at the economy that's there if needed
