With the bike in gear and the top pulled tight the bottom should be hanging loose, I would imagine 1" from it's hanging position ie pushed up.
I guess not. Hey, you guys have to pay for living in such a beautiful country somehow.
Take a trip down here, seen them for about R100000-115000, which is close to $10000.
Seems reasonable, thats 10%. Remember the higher the first number is, the bigger the discrepancy will be (maybe I should have stuck with maths at...
Apparently (I have no proof whatsoever) the speedo over reads by about 10% but the odo is correct.

Tut tut Randy, you being a Canadian and all. Isn't that your future king, or are you guys free now? :biggrin:
1 litre = 1000ml, in every corner of the planet :potstir:
