Well my bike has surprised me, I've recently started using fuelly.com after seeing a link on another foccer's signature. I've done 3 fill ups now, the first was when it was really wet, therefore I was riding conservatively, the second was a mix of wet and fine, but still being a good boy and over these 2 fill ups I was getting 59 mpg, so I was very pleased with that.
Up until today's fil up the weather has been fab, the bike had a scenic run home the other day, nothing too fast, but more high revs than over the past couple of weeks, more overtakes, quick acceleration, heavy braking etc etc.......61mpg, 2 mpg better! :eek
So, does that mean, to be green I have to give it some on the bike rather than ride conservatively???? :b Happy days! :thumbup

Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys beer, and that helps!
