before the next trip i think i'll have to fit the preload adjuster, as things got a bit 'light' on the front end over rough srufaces.. the good news is that i finally managed 50 MPG (imperial) - cruising at an indicated 85 MPH seems to do the trick..

Looking good, nice combo and encouraging fuel returns.
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint
