Yesterdays result, 324 km and 16.8 litres to fill. Works out at 53.29 mpg. Reckon I could get better, but where would be the fun in that.

This response has made me realise that i´ve changed into a "glass half empty" sort of bloke, I think it may be time to sell the last of the Beemers and restore my natural balance. Who'd have thought i'd get an answer to my physcological issues. Thanks

or does the engine and road noise of the bike increase considerably when the fuel tank is almost completely empty? Even wearing earplugs the noise is louder. Having spent years riding non jap bikes i am still getting used to the very different mechanical noises of the bike and am finding the...
