New member in Newcastle NSW

Postby ginni650 » Sun Jan 20, 2008 6:00 pm

Hi everyone, found this website by accident - been searching for a top box for my bike and this is what Google served me ... Btw - I haven't found anything about the Top Box I was searching for in here. :)

Anyway, my bike is Kawasaki, and I like the brand - so I guess it won't hurt to become a member of this website.

I live in Newcastle, got something over 1 year experience, I like safe & relaxed cruising with a little bit of fun in the twisties every now and then.

Recently I have created a simple website dedicated to Motorcycle Fuel Consumption, as I think this topic is very much neglected, especially in comparison to the cars! I guess nowadays every sane driver and rider has to think about his fuel economy and its impact on our environment.

Another thing you'd be wasting your time searching for in most manufacturer brochures is the top speed, and also average engine speed on highways - as this very much affects your comfort, and again, your bike gas mileage.

So please help this project grow and add your bike at http://www.motorcyclefuelconsumption.com/

That's it for now guys, stay safe and I'll see you around.

Ginni is just a generic nickname - definitely not a short for Virginia :) (I'm a guy)
