Sorry, people but can I slightly modify this question and ask - What's the fuel capacity of a Fazer tank and how many miles would you expect to get from a tank, litres/gallons? (4.5 litres=1 gallon)
140 miles every 2 days. refill 10 to 11 litres dependant on traffic/conditions/etc.Mix of dual carriage way and town (London) driving
£32 buys about 24 litres, 300 divided by 24 = 12.5 miles per litre, multiply by 4.55 to convert to mpg, that's 57 - you're doing pretty good if I've worked that out correctly.My feeling, with my bikes, is that speed drinks fuel, especially upper motorway speeds.
does despatch riding pay? Once I lived in a group of flats (converted house) in East Dulwich, SE London - there was a despatch guy in the attic rooms, wow his place was a mess (lovely bloke) - just worked all hours, this was back in the 1980's.
No despatching ain't what it was the rates haven't gone up in 27 years. I worked for Addison lee in the late eighties and a minimum paid £3.75 with bonus, and I'm back with them again and a minimum is still £3.75. Take home is about £500 take out fuel running costs for the bike and insurance £1000 . I'm a mechanic so service the bike myself so that cuts the cost, but you can put on the miles when it was at courier systems I did 8500 miles in 6 weeks.
