    Lol, well my 150 isn't that slow really, did use a shitload of gas (and over a litre of oil) though!

    Obviously made it ok, was a nice day and quite enjoyed the ride up till about 100kms out of Wellington, where it started to get cold and boring (and windy as). Was suprised I used so much oil, usually a full tank of oil will get me 1000kms or so, must have just managed 500 (I admit I was going a little fast), almost thought I was screwed, as the first gas station I stopped at didn't have any, luckly the other station in the town was an oil dealer as well!

    Thanks for the advice guys.

    Nice to hear you made it. Did you leave a smoke trail all the way?
    Here for the ride.

    Likely dude, especially after I ran out about 500kms out of Auckland and had to buy some cheap non-synth stuff from a local gas station (all they had).
