I recall you palming off orange sheepskins at the cold kiwi 2 years ago

Actually it's off a Himalian Yeti I managed to smuggle into the country a few years ago. Unfortnately he has past away, too warm a climate you see. What's on the CX is the last remaining piece of evidence. Please don't tell MAF.

Turns out its speedo reading on the ol' porky is about 15kph low. This'll explain the 150-130km difference in odometer reading between the GB and CX on the same bit of road. Something to be aware of on future rides. Also means the CX is a bit more economical on petrol, makes up for it in oil usage though, than what I first thought.
