good looking AND modest
find myself agreeing with "five chins" 
no point in "worrying" about the fuel crisis, the Yanks are going full tilt at buggering everything up for everyone with their "live for today" cos I aint here tomorrow attitude, makes the "conservationists" look pretty damn silly, while over here we all winge at 80p + a litre and 30/40 mpg, over there one of the most "popular" cars is a Truck that does about 6/8 miles to the gallon,!! just get on your bike and "go for it" I dont even bother thinking about how many miles per, I get from mine, as its one of the best ways of "reliving" the tension, :bow:
soz carried away AGAIN, :bang:

My MPG has got worse since the colder weather arrived !!!!!
Mind you........I've got the electric screen in the 'raised' position to keep the windchill off of me. And I'm carrying more weight in the built in luggage in the form of sweatshirt, spare gloves and one-piece waterproofs.
The joys of a Pan European ST1300 !!!!!

Around 180miles
Thats with 16st and another 30lbs of lugage. Best 200, but had it serviced recently and was getting 170 in the first couple of weeks, back to 180+ as I'm a bit gentler with it being a bit damp. I get less miles out of super unleaded than normal :dunno: . Worst has been 160 when making a dash to the airport.
Shame someone doesn't do an aftermarket tank of say 30 litres.
