I get about 30mpg average compared to 50mpg on my blade but I never bought the H2 for Mpg.

around 100 miles give or take to a 17ltr tank.
Pah, I went out on my Gt550 Suzuki today (twice). This beast of a bike has just been professionally set up on a dyno, and is giving out a whopping 41bhp at the wheel. I did 62 miles from brimmed, and when I got home (the first time) squeezed 10.92 litres of Super unleaded back into the tank.

10.92/4.54 gives 2.42 Gallons, for 62 miles, so 25.62 miles to the gallon.

Better than my 1098R!!! I'm desperately looking for petrol at 70/80 miles.

It's a modern special using a model aircraft engine (I think).

Great bit of engineering though! A few people did experiment with radial engines back in the day:



Can't imagine why it didn't catch on hehe

Spotted this at the HD open day in Oxford yesterday.

A HD engine in a Rickman frame is so wrong, yet the attention to detail on this looks quite right.

Perhaps if it had been done with the new Norton or latest Bonnie motor.....

The tank said Peugeot, and yes it was a great piece of kit!

I wasn't really planning on going out as the weather was crap, so it was spur of the moment, and I've also heard you've gotten even slower....

What size are you in Alex ? Demon Tweeks are selling them off fairly cheap on the site and on eBay.
