Yikkes a white fairing, add some blue and red lights and you can probably do whatever speed you want to on the freeway Soos
I have thought of it...
As it is I pretty much ride as I like in the morning.
The speedo odometer quits counting when the speedo needle hits the peg past the 80mph mark.
MPG going around 45-55 now.
55mpg was on the ONE day I actually rode to and from work doing 55 the whole way.
At about 48mpg....that is a fairly normal MPG lately.
(I cleaned my K&N air filter lately
)
A windy day drops it to 45'ish, a nice backwind day, the 51+ range(doing 75'ish mph).
And yes, Utah has the worst drivers.
The ONE real problem I see is they cannot merge without slowing 30-40mph under the speed limit.
No matter what the speed limit is.
And when one person hits the brakes, so does EVERYONE else......
I sit pretty high(compared to a compact car) and can see the "slinky" effect EVERY DAY in the evening.
I'm glad I ride to work early in the morning, and there is barely any traffic on the way to work.
Denver..... YOU BETTER be doing 60 MINimum when entering the highway, they expect you know how to drive, use turn signals, and merge with traffic.....
Alaska, WAY more courteous than anywhere else I have drove.
I gotta go to work at 4:am..... so i'm off to bed.
I gotta do my valve clearances this weekend....(or my next day off)
Tighten my chain too.... I'm either lucky and got a GOOD cheap chain, or I keep everything aligned close enough, because I've logged 16,000+ miles this year so far. and about 20-25k on the chain in total.
(thought it was 20,000, but not quite... wait a few weeks)
This chain has only needed adjusted about every 2000 to 3000 miles.
And then not a whole lot.
