HB got his "L"

[Hopeful Bastard]

Yehaa! Got the L yesterday.. So guess what i have been up to all day today! man it is a great feeling to be out on a bike. As someone has previously said.. You can smell a whole lot more when riding.. The nice smell when it starts to rain. Fires. Gawd damn... The list goes on!!


In saying that, Who would like to come out for a ride around Levin on sunday? (Dry weather Permitting) Just to help me improve my riding? (Around town riding and a little bit of main road)

[nothingflash]

Nice one mate

Good luck.

do you have a reserve switch? best you practise swapping it over while moving, just in case. whats the range on the bike? if youve got a trip meter, set it back to zero when you fill, and that will give you an idea of how far you can go before reserve.

Yeah it does. Sits right under the tank so i think i can easily get to it.. Suprised me when i had a look in the tank.. There was crap loads left in the tank.. :blink:

So i ran it on reserve to the gas station and have been running off the reserve for the last while.. probably a :nono: but oh well.. i will learn my lesson when i well and truely run out huh? hehehe

You knows it...

[sunhuntin]

you should be able to get at 20k on reserve, but dont push your luck. i tend to fill mine as soon as i hit reserve, just cos i would be fucked if i did run out entirely.

[Hopeful Bastard]

Yeah. Lookin in the tank before i flicked it over, It seemed it could get me another 20k..

Congrats bro.

Be careful with the reserve... pushing a bike any substantial distance is not fun...
