did you say hes getting 70 miles to the tank?, take them carbs off and clean them check the choke plungers, i had a similar problem and this solved the problem.

Im 10st 8 lol. Its me being lazy and using gear 6 all the time, if i floor it in 5 then switch to 6 id get to 90 easy enough i guess, but i like to save fuel so chug up to 80 in 6th.

Ive been at 95 ish in gear 5 on the m5, but only because i thought i was in gear 6 lol. Not used to having 6 gears yet.

The sv is so slow restricted

right weve taken the plugs out last night and the nearest one to it is number 19 , and as for the tank its around 60/70 miles to half a tank iam going to take a look at the choke plungers today to see if there is a problem with them . He also told me that a XL125 beat off the mark on sunday
