I couldn't tell you, but bit of a vague question, lots of variables to be thrown in there. I couldn't even hazard a ball park figure, but I'm sure someone can on here.....

+1, I can get nearly 90 miles before reserve is needed, others on smaller gearing get a lot less, but you might as well have asked how long is this piece of string in my pocket, due to variables as alluded to above.

Ive never understood that sayin 'how long is a piece of string'.

Half its length x 2 etc.

Why have you got string in your sky Mike? :?

In String Theory every string must be close to a Planck length, which is about 10 to the minus 33 centimeters, or about a millionth of a billionth of a billionth of a billionth of a centimeter.

In order to include closed loops as opposed to open ended strings, there must be a special kind of symmetry called supersymmetry, which means for every boson (particle that transmits a force) there is a corresponding fermion (particle that makes up matter). So supersymmetry relates the particles that transmit forces to the particles that make up matter.

Hope that helps.

I was alluding to the superstring theory, as opposed to higs bosun normal theory.
And, if I want to keep superstring in my pocket, that's between me and my underpants ;) .

i'm on my 4th pint and I only walked to the loo and back........ :D hows that for mileage? :lol:

( my mk3 does a bit better 130 km ish on standard gearing... altho the jets were massive! 152 an 60 pilot then )

now on 15 f 48 R - with standard jets it does anywhere from 70 to 90 km allegedly - accuracy is dubious since I cracked the speedo and my reserve dont work hence extreme anxiety if I get to 60 on the odious odometer

and if mike's string gets ravelled around the rear it can really bring the resistance up :shock:

ok I better go to bed now!
