That would be something indeed.
This bikes the same, if you just start it up to show a mate a few times the un burnt oil pisses out of the anti condensation breathers in the bottom of the pipes when it's back in the garage, you need to take it for a half decent run every time you fire it up really to keep everything clear.
It's nowhere near as quick as summat like a kh500 or even kh400, I'm guessing far more weight and less radical porting, it's more gentle tourer than anything. Except you wouldn't wanna do that too much with petrol what is is..back in this things day it was obviously a lot cheaper. I remember in '76 on me puch sports 'Ped ( yeah right..)I used to put 50p in me tank sometimes, sounds ridiculous but petrol was about 40p a gallon, so I'm guessing in modern terms I was getting 5 or 6 litres :eek the 50p included a squirt of forecourt 2t too...
I also remember as a kid in the old mans car, shell were giving away " history of flight" coins, but you had to buy a minimum of four gallons, and when I asked dad to put four in so I could get a coin he said " fuck that it'll be a quid!....."...I think that's about 18 litres for the youngsters on here..though I could be wrong..senility is a bitch..
