I know I have to pump it up every few months, since buying the F650 in February the cars not been used at all, hence the mains cable into the engine bay to keep the battery charger powered :)

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.

Just been checking the specs of the HP4S .... apparently it's less than 20lbs heavier than my 48hp F650 Funduro jeepers no wonder they're fast with 193hp on tap
