Yep, been definitely checking oil ,tires , carb, greasing chain and cleaning.
I got 61mpg last night after 180 miles I hit reserve at 169.2 miles.
I just do the speed limit of up to 60mph, if I go downhill and climb speed I use it to go back up the next slope. I get behind a safe distance from a tractor trailer and cruise at 65-70mph.
I checked my gps max speed that run and it was 73mph drafting behind that trailer.
I have to be in 4th gear and it takes a while to get to 72mph on flat at around 7,500 rpms UN-tractor trailer/ truck/van assisted.
My rpms are around 5,700 to 6,200+ from 55-62mph. I use a cheap Chinese rpm/hour meter off ebay for about $12. 3rd rpm/hour meter of the same I have had and they last a year or so. I had one last a few months until it started malfunctioning.
I'm at 88 HOURS from when I put it on the bike in the last 3,700 miles!
I don't reset it so I know the total hours riding on it.
