low&slow, the vetter challenge is on May 13 In Carmel CA. You can get more info at
craigvetter.com, I think that this one will be great fun and interesting. More and more people are taking up the challenge. I suspect that someone will meet the Vetter challenge this time around, maybe even Craig Vetter himself. If the 650 diesle got even some half way aero modds it would be there. My personal objective in 94mpg [2.5L/100km] but will be happey with 81mpg [2.9L/10km]

With respect your 82 Yamaha Vision. I really wanted on of them when they first came out. I also think that, the Vision could be aeromodded to get some much better mpg than you get now. To start with a pair of properly shaped and positioned sadle bags [cargo boxes] could be built, that looked good as well if looks are important to you.
