Its a nice trip up the Hill, i have an Auntie who lives up there, its about twenty miles away, just right for a spin and a cup of tea and some home made apple pie.
I had to negotiate a line of tractors, i mean Harleys riding in convoy
, they were only doing about 45mph, cars behind them too,, i frightened some of them as i passed them,

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: 250+ miles to a tank.....can of worms opened
« on: 22 October 2012, 06:56:17 am »I zeroed my milo and filled up with shell super, 109 miles on the clock and started it up at a cafe yesterday and the last black mark on fuel gauge started to flash,,109 i thought,not good,,as i rode looking for fuel the flashing bar stayed constant , when i fefuelled it only took 11.45 litres to the spout neck,,
so if the tank is ,what 18 litres?, then the gauge is set a bit high,and there was loads left in the tank,,
whats the capacity of a gen 2 tank?
Yes,my FZ1 scares you a bit early,, still loads of fuel left,,,light comes on early but enough for me to get 150 without worrying, not much goes in then though, so my riding style would run out of fuel at about 175 miles per tank

Well us Sunday bikers (dry Sundays) haha might get a bit more biking done if the forcast is to be believed.
Actually last Sunday i was busy but there were loads of bikes out here making for the Welsh heaven.
I was out at motherinlaws mowing, heard some bikes coming and watched, 4 sit ups in a row, be it Fazers,street triples etc, i am noticing a high percentage of retro style bikes, standard bars, seen alot of them BMW 800 things too, very popular.
You seen anything unusual?

I have just bought a big bag of ear plugs from Jewson builders, they got the lot , long soft conical rubber ones, £3.50
In a quiet room do you ever try to listen to the noise in your ers, or head, mine is quite loud,constant high pitched whine,sometimes changes tone,, i think we all have it but get used to it. Kind of tinitus i guess.
My last ride, last Saturday was totally ruined by ear plugs, they compress to insert but dindnt re expand,slipped out, crap, Hence the Jewson ones to try.
I resorted to crouching behind the screen,, then had back ache for three days
