So he has discovered that a 600 supersport does less to the gallon than a 125??-hmmm, I wonder how long it would have taken him to figure that out without 'breaking down'...............

I remember doing something similar when I had a 350 B31 BSA back in the mid 60's-had to push it about 2 miles home because it ran out of fuel-I was in high dudgeon about 'some b4stard syphoning my tank'. Then we sat down and worked out where I had been since I filled the 4 gallon tank-it was about 250 miles-so better than 60 to the gallon-taught me a valuable lesson that-as I am sure this has for Ben.............
