Cheers On my last CT90 trip back from Mildura I managed to make it to Temora in a day[1], which I thought was pretty good for 650km. I had a tailwind across the Hay plain, which allowed me to maintain 80km/h. Bitumen road the whole way. BTH [1] To be fair, I started at 07:30 and arrived at around 20:30. -- Posted at www.usenet.com.au

Did you not notice that there is damn-all difference in cost between an 80cc bike and a 1200cc model. A CT90 costs $17 less to rego than my Guzzi.OTOH Z50's are damn cheap. Posties are not. Theo

Theo It cost me $205 to register my postie bike... but I think it'll be worth every cent - the energy it takes for me to kick start the bloody thing will ensure I lose about 10 kilos over the next 12 months, so it's a LOT cheaper than a gym membership! betty |
