    Gotta love the economy of them. Last time I filled one up 3litres it was full and went for around 120m before it needed topping up again. Better than the $128 it took to fill the focus today . Just a shame the UK rains too much so I don't use one here, snowed again today too!

    I'm with you on that one Olddude, Jap bikes are so much more reliable and smother riding. The quickest bike I ever owned was a Norton 850 Commando, my buddies 1100 cc kawasaki would wipe my clock.

    ya bought my wife a suzy 1100 back in the day when we lived in Ca. every time she rode it the chp would stop her, she was a hotty in those days, on a big big bike they couldnt resist stopping her.

    128 lb hottie with 600 lbs of hot iron between her legs , any way you get the picture.

    Love finding these old KZ's that have been left for dead on the side of someones garage, usually only takes a few hours to get them going.
