they probably left the engine ticking over quite a lot which wouldnt help your mpg |

Done a bit of an experiment today, 50 mile trip to the airport returned 42.2 MPG, mixture of a and b roads, cruise set to 70 where possible full tank showing 550 mile range.

Why does the rear pedlar get a water bottle? surely the one at the back doesn't do any pedalling... at least I wouldn't |

The rear peddlar or as I call her the wife uses the water bottle to squirt the front peddlar if he goes too fast

I took mine on a 430 mile round trip (70mph) last weekend, just after it had an oil change. it seems the MPG has dropped right off from mid 40s down to early 30s The oil was a recommended type from Opie, and a new filter was fitted.

To be honest20 l of unleaded is not so great a problem, just brim it with diesel an add 5 00 mils of 2 stroke and jobs a good un.
