Wish I could figure something out to measure the fuel ... but its too much trouble.
Despite how much a wind screen and body panels would help i just love the raw cafe racer style look too much to put any wind shields on.. maybe someday. As for a smaller rear sprocket, I got one about a year ago for better highway and have never gotten around to installing it, soon


I ran out at 84 miles- which is over double my usual FE, this time i topped off the tank at 4.1 gallons and my goal is 300 miles, we shall see
