hello all i'm riding a 600 fazer 2001 commuting 47 motorway miles and am achieving 194 per 11.94 ltrs = 73 mpg. which is around 55-60 mph at just under 5000rpm

most blokes at work laugh at my 'grandad' riding but at 112p per litre can't afford to cane it. It takes me an hour to complete the journey but going 70 - 80 it only knocks off around 10 minutes which isn't worth the fuel.
some blokes at work are actually coming around to the idea of eco riding, most don't even check their tyre pressures regulary.
got a smaller sprocket to fit today 47t so will see what that does.
