The valve clearances were
checked and all found to be in
specifi cation, and the suspension
linkage was removed and grease
added to keep those little bearings
in top condition. Engine oil and fi lter
were replaced. So far no issues or
concerns have arisen and we are
fi nding the bike very easy to live with.
What has surprised us the most
is the great fuel economy. Even
running the fairly aggressive map that
the Professor installed, it achieved
17.53km/litre on a recent trail ride
through the Bulahdelah forests. The
bike travelled 94km with a good mix
of trails; about 25km was open-road
transport, about 40km was tight and
technical single track and the rest
was fast-fl owing trails. The reserve
fuel light came on at the 90km mark.
On refuel the tank took 5.36 litres.
Based on that fi gure, that equals
a theoretical total range from the
7.5-litre tank of 131km.What has surprised us the most is thegreat fuel economy. Even running thefairly aggressive map that the Professorinstalled, it achieved 17.53km/litre ona recent trail rideFrom the stocker look
