just worked mine out and i'm down to 7.5 miles per litre!
i most do town work a fair bit is start 3 miles of dual carriage, rounabout, carriageway, round about carriageway.

15 miles of that to work with the occasional popping through city traffic for 15 miles or so.

starting to think it's the bike not the missus thats spending all my money!

this might sound like the dumbest question going.
my fuel light comes on really early would the bike being heavily tilted forward affect that?

only thanks to malcolm my neighbour did i know the bikes front end had been dropped through the yokes by nearly 2 inches and the clip ons mounted above the yokes. just wondering if that causes problems with the fuel light.

Pulling the fork legs up through the yoke will not make any difference due to the Telelever front end, Altering the shock length is what changes things.

Nobody wants to see the pictures?

She's in a lovely dress, with BIG sunglasses...

It was a beautiful afternoon in the gardens of Lambeth Palace...
