They do wear out, but they're supposed to replace em for me.
I have about 24k kms on mine and the tensioner spins freely. I've been told that's an indication of it being ready to break. |

Not the frame's fault. It was the fact that an Austrian engine doesn't like it when you give it SAE fuel tables.
Current models and 2008s with corrected fuel maps don't boil gas.

It'll go 160-180 miles before you run out of gas. What kind of range do you expect?

I've got a lunch, but I'm free after that. I could hook up with you around 1:00-1:30. Puckets?

That's more than I got out of my TLR, though I never ran it all the way out of gas.

with it at it's worst fuel economy state (before all the reflashes) and me riding the piss out of it (read racing and stunting) I got 125 miles on a tank.
It's much better now after the reflash and Drummer. I get about 40 mpg average... which means I could get 200 miles on it if I wanted to run it almost empty. I fill up between 150 and 180 miles just cause. I even got an average of 24 mpg on the track... |
