Fuel consumption: |
About 3,2 to 3,5 /100km unleaded fuel. If consumption is steadily more than 4 litres then You should necessarily synchronize the carburators ! | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Oil consumption: | There should no measurably oil consumption, if You ( hopefully ) make an oil change every 3500 km or more often. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Drive-Belt | Can last more than 40.000 km if You maintain it from time to time with a little bit of vegetable oil (no joke!) | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Handling | Due to little weigth it is very handy. Problems with shimmy or oscillation are not nature of the bike. Often bad bearings or tyres or saddlebags are the cause | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Lifetime of engine | The engine can last over 100.000km despite their high rotations. What is essential for such a lifetime is an oil change at regular intervals and soft revs as long as the engine is cold | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Warm-Up | If the engine is cold the engine-head is lubricated only with old oil from the las tour! So You have to avoid high revs and strong acceleration until motor-oil is warm. It needs about 25km to reach optimum working-temperature of 100° to 140° (Celsius) My receipt:
Remember: cold oil is pasty and cannot pass small openings. Remember: one wheelie with cold engine is the same wear as a 1000km tour |
