cycle world klr article "70 mpg / 400 mile range"

One might be able to get that kind of range and MPG if traveling nonstop at 45-50 mph in 5th gear all day. Maybe they had a top secret prototype high mileage carburetor that accidentally made it on to a production bike. Oil companies will not be happy if this gets out. If Al Gore only knew . . . Glen, A13

But remebner to take a grain of salt with you on your search, as with any thread on this list, it can quickly turn tongue in cheek (and usually a butt cheek to boot). dat brooklyn bum
