    Picked up the new T120 today, managed to put 140 on the clock on the B roads up the north east coast of England, computer said 68mpg but the old fashioned way was just over 65mpg, happy days. 700+ miles on the clock now, a 195 mile day out to the lakes and still 36 miles in the tank, 70.2 mpg and I was taking it up 5K+ through the box. Photos now in the Gallery pages

    Is there any specific running in advice or is just don't redline it and ride with variable revs for the first 500 mile?
