Yep, that would be my country. I don’t have a motorcycle license (moto insurance is cost-prohibitive in my area), and I’m happy I can ride this without.

I plan to make a proper YouTube summary of all the work I’ve done to this bike.

Have added some bodywork to the rear and hit a rough estimate of 114 MPG. I’m not too impressed with this figure and I hope it’s a result of the cold weather outside. Been riding it between -10 Celsius to -2 Celsius. Have ridden 110 km so far; 1/3 of a tank left.




Here’s a pic of the bike as of now. I added two rear panels after my dissatisfaction with 100 MPG. Kept the length short to avoid making a parachute for crosswinds. It brought mileage up some. I am going back and forth about the angle of the spoiler atop the storage pod. I’m not sure if lowering it to horizontal or angling it downward will make a difference given the amount of turbulence behind my helmet.

Of course these figures are based on the fuel gauge readout and odometer distance. I have nothing else to go of off until this tank is burned. I don’t take them to be too accurate.
