    No not at all Yorkshire Tyke it just seem to be everywhere i go there are speed cameras, camera vans or the pesky unmarked police cars. I don't hang around either but i have my fun on the twisty bits.

    Its a 2010 C-ABS bike mate and i run it on super unleaded too as it feels a lot smoother and responsive especially when the temp gauge reaches around 106 in the warm weather we have been having.

    Mine varies by a few mpg but this is what I'm averaging! When I bought the bike from new the sales guy did say to ride carefully the 100 miles for the ecu to learn your riding style and you get better mpg! Not sure how true that was or just sales bullsh!t, I would say I'm a fairly fast rider.

    I've had as little as 90 until the light came on when having fun on a weekend. to 150 miles until the light came on when touring.

    Most of the time about 120 and I fill up. with or without the light coming on

    No that it is really relevant, but the R6 will do about 50 miles on a full tank, but can vary according to circuit.

    100 - 120 before the light comes on - but I base it on 'smiles per gallon not miles per gallon' ;)

    My RR8 shows 50-52mpg, and that's not hanging about either! My previous R1 (Big bang) used to get 35 mpg ridden the same. These blades are amazing!
