Anyone looking to Downsize there bike?
 

Just filled up at Morrison's £1.34.9 per litre=£27:86,I used to be able to fill the car for that cost
I think I might seriously consider going back to a 250 or 500.
New Honda CBR250 at 100mpg looks appealing

If I was commuting I would, but the bike is for pleasure, and the bike I ride is part of that pleasure. To me to be out riding a bike that I didn't enjoy would be a waste of time and money, and enjoying burning 3 gallons in 100 miles is better than wasting 1 gallon.

If you think you'd enjoy it just the same, there's no reason why not, go get a test ride.

Couldn't agree more. And actually, the SV drinks a hell of a lot less than either of the cars anyway, so unless the family is going out, the bike still works out cheaper. Although, we did Bognor to Littlehampton today to see the Olds two up on two bikes. Whether one car would have cheaper for that I wouldn't like to say. Don't care anyway, it was a lovely ride and it will only have been a few pence in it!

dicky ticker, do you have an SV650?? what bike could you fit £27 worth of fuel in??

Re: Anyone looking to Downsize there bike?
 

Nope - just ordered my new one :cool:

It costs me £43.57 to fill up @ £132.9 per gallon :(

Re: Anyone looking to Downsize there bike?
 

That's a good point. And if you're only paying 135p a litre, you're doing a lot better than down here!

Re: Anyone looking to Downsize there bike?
 

Paid £1.40 a litre today. Got to the point where I had to fill up, drove past one at £1.38 should of stopped :( xD
