I only use first and second gear to leave at a stop. After that. I drive in 3 for a 90 degrees corner. 4 on roundabouts and 30km/h zones and 50km/h zones. And faster then 50 km/h, i use the top gear (5th gear).
So no problem if there would be a hilly terrain. Just downshift one gear
I should make an short vid of me riding and accelerating in lower rpms. To give an idea what 400Nm having under your right foot means
Today i filled up.
1242km (771miles) with 68,32l = 5,5l/100km = 47mpg
I drove 290km at 120km/h. Rest is at 100km/h.
Next tank would ruin my 90 days and 3 tank average. Cause it gonne contain 780km at 120km/h. Thats going to be an interesting number. Maybe 6,8l/100km?
