2600 or thereabouts. That includes the burn down to Dover and back. On the trip down to Dover, the M1 was shut so went down A5. Having a bike is ace sometimes, filtered miles of queues! So I had the bike 6 weeks and already have it in for 4k service.

Yeah a good bike. Happy with it now. Needs some TLC though, it's only had one wash in those 4k miles Kwak! Really needs a clean and then polish. Got the worst of the fly squash and oil splatter off her using wet-wipes every night, but really, really needs cleaning. You doing anything this weekend?

Another thing I found, the Scottoiler was pouring oil out as it was so hot. Practically turned it off to get flow rate right at those temps. Air temperature was generally over 35C and often around 40, plus the high level exhausts heat the reservoir. all this makes the oil thin and it runs out much faster. Had to clean a lot of fling off the bike util I got it right.....
