Not really - it was a brilliant bike for distance work and 45-50MPG all day long. 200 miles between fills.
Most I had was 180mpg......150 if I wind it up tryin to chase other foccers down....u had 250 Dazza ?? U musta been ridin with ur grandad googles on lol.....I remember seeing a gen1 at the brum meet that'd had the top of the tank cut off and a 1.5 inch (ish) section welded in and finished perfectly. I wonder how much that upped the fuel load and range.
Just flapping about on this stagnant little pond on the outer rim of the internet.....yup.... :-))
