So how many K's was that before you hit reserve?
I went away on the minibike (the Z1000) last weekend, doubt I would have got good economy though
Not that I was trying

292km hitting reserve. Originally the bike used to hit at 192km- 13km/L. A mate with a Z1000 gets 15km/L. Gonna service it for him soon. Hoping that will improve afterwards.

Re: New fuel economy record ZRX
Speedcams spoiled my fun. Toowoomba to Port Douglas was the trip, and musta seen 6 or 7 speedcams. Still got a guilty conscience for some of the trip. Hopefully none saw me. Sitting on 110-120 most of the way.
