Is the cost of fuel impacting your bike fun?

I must admit at the moment I commute up to Aberdeen and Back for work
twice a week from Glasgow which is a tank each way. Combined with my
leisure mileage (say the Yorkshire Pudding just outside Sheffield) that brought
the whole trip to around 900 miles (Work and Lesuire) which fair puts a dent
in the old pocket regardless at around 6 tanks at about £18-£22.

As for tyres I generally stick to sport touring tyres mainly as my bikes are my
only transport I get  lot of miles down. I got between 6-8k out of the BT023's
my Road Angel ST's are similar but a little higher by a couple of K but I did
accidently run them to the canvas (the back wheel is at 7.5k and climbing)
and I am still running in the Road Pilot 3's but I'd rather pay a little more and
have my tyre last longer (I'm lazy) but the road pilot 3's must be coming up
for quite a few k now.

* I will add the road angel on the Thou at 7.5k is a new one
not the one that I accidently ran down to the canvas :P

I've had 022' and 023's in the past. Cracking tyres!

I get on better with the Angel St's and the Road Pilot 3's but its always
a personal preference thing. I just find the two sets I am running atm
give me more traction and grip in the wet, and living in Scotland as
you can imagine its handy
