Re: New Bike,  Great Gas Mileage

nice  ;) how many miles to a gallon?

Hopefully nothing on the fuel front Unless this is the intended result

And if veggy oil is used to lubricate it, then indeed it will be very green-friendly.

I've got a bike not dissimilar to that, gets about 25 miles a day to a mere 2 pints of Strongbow 8-)

....if it hasn't got a throbbing, 1000cc Vee-Twin engine fitted between the down tubes, it's not a proper Bike*... ::)...!

The funny thing is, after experiencing the effortless delights of Motorcycles at a very early age, I could never get addicted to "Push Bikes".... :o...!

The first thing I did to one of my first Push Bikes was to fit an engine to it...never looked back since!...;)...>>>

The Vincent "Firefly". 49cc two-stroke. Roller Drive to the rear wheel.

http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~pattl ... rc0303.htm

....an excellent add-on device to reduce the possibility of a Cyclist's heart attack...Trust me... :)...!

Now, on my Motor Bikes, its press a button, feet up, and away to go....Total Joy... ;D...!

Paul... ;D...!

..and still on two wheels....no problems with "Traffic Jams"... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

...and if you are an Aircraft enthusiast, Motor-Bikin' is the nearest you will get to flying a "Sopwith Camel"... ;)...!
