Just curious, my late mother and father were from England, my mom from Manchester and my dad from Accrington. My sister now lives in Aylesbury. I often wonder how things would have turned out if we had moved to the UK when my kids were young. Safe riding.

Ah! Thank you kindly. That makes a lot of sense. One would have thought I would have got it the first time. Whereabout are you in the UK?

Actually, I did read your post, and thank you for it. Unfortunately I am not sure if my English is not very good, or my mind is not seeing things your way, but it didn't make much sense. Please don't take offense, I really couldn't make out what you were trying to get across.:confused:

Tried that, it didn't make any difference. I've also had times where the left side of the seat hasn't clipped down properly, so when I have a bit of time I need to see if it is possible to adjust the catch.

My concern with the frunk/fuel lock is the amount of pressure required when turning to unlock the rear seat. I am worried that the key will bend and then not fit in the ignition. Does anybody else find the seat lock very stiff?

I don't know, each to their own I guess. Now that I have figured it out, it works for me.

On the flip side, if you know your average fuel consumption, and this tells you how much fuel you have left, then you know that when you see a signboard with next gas station 30 miles, you had better get ready to walk.

I agree with the adjustment of the lever, I had a nasty ankle break falling off a ladder back in '95 and have gradually lost upward movement of my foot due to a bone spur forming, so I have to adjust the lever a tad lower to compensate.

A long shot, have you tried five zeroes?

I've also had my NC slip into a ghost neutral, but I have had that happen on most of the bikes I've ridden. Sometimes we don't remove our foot fully from the gear shift lever, which doesn't allow the mechanism to realign properly and then we don't get a "full" shift.

I'm running Pirelli Scorpions, I have ridden about 6000km and they have around 1.5mm left before I reach tread depth indicator. I don't have the lightest right wrist so that doesn't seem too bad in comparison.

Back in 1974, two friends and I clubbed together R15.00 (South African Rand) for a really beat up one of these and rode it around our local park until it fell apart. We were about 15 years old at the time.

Thank you SergeantChuck, so "lekker" (a South African expression for vvveerrry good/nice) to hear some decent music. That is a playback from waaaaayback. I was going to call her Lady in Red, another one of my favorites, but the words of Lady just worked.

Mine is "Lady". If anybody remembers Styx,"Lady, when you're with me I'm smiling".

I live in South Africa so my gauge is in liters and km. I was concerned with the flashing zero, but after watching for a while, it appears that when there are 3 liters left in the tank, it starts counting how much you have used of that 3 liters. On a long trip last Saturday I kept riding for a...

Took an eight hundred kilometer round trip to Clarens and Golden Gate in the Orange Free State, South Africa on Saturday.
