husoi Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 So from Friday evening till sat 1am I finished the shadow seats. Gel pads front and rear. Then... Saturday went for a test ride. Left home to Peterhead. The bike does 157 miles on a tank. The petrol station was 157 miles and 200 yards Meaning 200 yards pushing it to Asda petrol station But at least, now I know the tank takes 12.98 lt From Peter head went to Pennan, for those who don't know, Pennan was where some scenes of the Local Hero were shot. Probably one of the few places in Scotland where you can't be lost no matter how drunk you are Rain 4 times only. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
