    Toying with the idea of spending a few hours on my 125 knocking up 125 miles and tryhing to see as many things of interest as I can. Yes, I am very bored!

    Does that mean I need to do 900 miles on my 900?

    that is impressive…. but OMG…. 18hrs at 30mph! :O

    My V7 is supposedly able to go 500km – 310miles on one tank of go juice!

    I don’t think I can get 200 miles out of a tank on mine.

    We did John O’Groats to Lands End in 1990 on a 50cc twist and go no-stop as a team of 5. 906 miles in 42 hours…didn’t check the mpg to be honest.

    Highest speed was over 50mph

    Full story here for those who have not read it already

    My 600 will do over 200 on tank full, but the 125 could do about 250 I estimate. The little CB100N that was my first road bike in 1982 would do well over 100mpg despite being thrashed everywhere. It had a 2.4 gallon tank. Best I did on that was to ride from Birmingham to a place not too far from the Scottish border to a place called Warkworth on a single tank. That was a long day!
