I must say , i wouldnt buy a bike just for having an long range though , that spells boredom to me , how about a little diesel Micra , plenty of room for your flask and sandwiches too then


160 from a tankfull will be sounding pretty impressive to a couple of the folk here
I would most likely keep the viffer as I wouldn't get much for it now, and it would not be easy to find one in similar nick to mine if I ever decided to go back to one.

The route I take up north on a friday night only has one or two fuel stops c half-way, and they aren't open late, so if I get held up I am in trouble. A lot of the trip is on M-way or straight A-roads, so comfort more important than fun really.

Just heard a rumour that Ducati have withdrawn their advertising with Bike mag

after the Duc got a slating in the latest test

Evidently , the mag havent even published the true findings and feelings either.

Looking forward to seeing my mate to see what was really said and omitted from the article
