    I can't believe how often some guys change bikes.....I've had mine for what seems like forever now.....sure it's slow and handles crap compared to new bikes, but it's still heaps of fun, and it can be pedaled along pretty quick too. Guys (gals too) are always looking for an easy way to improve their speed, instead of working on the skills.....

    If that were only true, LPG actually uses about 10-20% more fuel than petrol for the same distance, for 8 litres of petrol you would need 10 litres of LPG plus the extra heavy tank need to hold the stuff, would add 20 or 30 kgs to the bike

    Likewise, I have had my bike since 1986, it is almost a classic now, does all I need at the moment as I use a cage for work I have limited opportunity for riding, it doesn't take a lot to maintain
