210km before reserve on the GN (with dumping about 10 carb fulls out while messing with jets, and idling for ages tuning it, and 100%max rpm runs all the time) so i think im still ok. bout 270 minimum max range worst case scenario. It will be ever so slightly more than that irl i think. Doesnt look like camshaft bothered the fuel use at all -

just air em down -
Watching various motorcycle touring/adv content. They all complain about how tiring it is to pick up your bike, and that in turn makes you more likely to drop your bike again. Mate just ride a sub 100kg bike. unfortunately it wont be as 'light' as my touring bike which i could shoulder fully loaded across rivers and up staircases, but will be close lol

technically yes lots of fun small bike adventuring

give you some decent entertainment after riding the vespa -
Did this I'm ok with it, for now anyways. Running out of motivation for making stuff, so went the git er dun approach, so I can go ride it and get some miles of smiles. Probably need 2 plate lights, but ehh it's good enough for the near zero night riding. Just on a slotted bracket. Now next time I feel like an hour or so of work I'll go through and do each little bracket as a little job, and every one wins

have to buy the good tyres and brake pads for the wife, holy shit shes terrifying on (and off) the road good tyres are cheaper than a new car had to get decent tyres for the ute cos it kept doing skids and drifts

My low beam has been blown for a while, since last east coast I think lol So instead of fixing that I put in an extra bright led park light This is the tail light It only gets barely noticeability brighter when the brake is on (it's very visible with no lens, so I dunno, what do you expect for $2 I guess) so will put a different bulb in later this week. (It's wired correctly I checked with the other lamps bulb, that's too big to fit under the lens) Also number plate light hanging off in the breeze, and big reflector on a little bracket I rivited onto the guard because don't have to worry about the chrome. @MopedNZ i think I have some little round reflectors in a box in the boot of one of the Morrie's, I'll dig in later and be sure

Jet the carb down for lean economy, then pull out the choke for passing power
