I've never really been bothered about MPG on my bike but I recently made a note of mileage/fuel cost on my run out to Snetterton for the BSB. 280 miles 'ish' round trip and riding in my normal way (not B**ls out but getting a move on or 'making progress) I got 45mpg. Happy with that to be honest.

I do have a GSXR 1000 to play out on in the mean time though so it's not all bad
SWEEEET! As long as it's not a H&¥¤a that's all that matters.

Lol, my missus wouldn't agree, she loves her little H&¥¤a :lol
Sorry folks, we seem to have hijacked the thread, so I'll say that I've just given the front of my engine a clean up and coat of paint. Headers are off too for a clean and polish, and new stainless studs and nuts.
Lots of other bits planned to be tidied up, unfortunately my OCDs are kicking in and the list is growing...it was only meant to be a bit of a tart up being a cheap hack :lol
Welcome to Muff! :lol
Nice pics Hairnet, all I've done with the fazer today is changed the clutch cable which finally arrived off Ebay yesterday. :rollin
Treat everything in life the way a dog would- if you can't eat it or foc it, forget it.
Didn't go out on the Fazer, but took the R1 hybrid up through Lancaster, Lythe valley, kirkstone pass, then honnister pass and back again. 200+ miles and my arse is killing me!

Nice ride to high beech , a bit empty today,, then up through the essex to Duxford, spitfire came right over our heads to land as we passed, then on 505 to Royston, past silver ball 507 to Baldock services for food, then heading home back on 507, ( nice road ) , A10 and home. The dog bottom right was waiting for a bit of sausage samwich
the night i was born, lord the moon stood a fire red., my poor mother her crying,
she said the gypsy was right, and she fell right dead
rode it to work out of pure protest really that I haven't had the chance to ride it recently......got stuck behind numerous bell ends resulting in some nice corners having the fun sucked out of them and now it has started foccing raining and I foresee a wet ride home at 0630 in the morning
I should have taken up bog snorkelling or something :lol
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
New battery. Bad timing as I've replaced tyres, chain and sprockets, now battery, and hardly use it any more. Gotta keep her nice though, been together too long.
