Default 500 miles on my 125 - Am I mad?

Yup, to Plymouth and back (NOT on one day).

Quite impressed with the little thing. I took the old A30 back which was about 100 miles of 70mph single carriage way fun.

No you're not mad.... just enthuisiastic!

If it's mad you're after then read Rictus01's story about his marathon ride on his FS-1E way back when dinasours roamed the earth!

Used to commute 100 mile round trip on my 125.

It was an Aprilia RS125 so was pretty quick, but it wasn't an ideal commuter for that sort of distance.
