I would just like to add my bit to Gary117's enquiry about the new Wee, after eight months and almost 3,000 miles. Comfort level is much the same luxury, but everything thing else is far superior I reckon; the engine/ gearbox and clutch is so smooth, handling so much more precise. I do get an occaisional tingle in my throttle hand but nothing like the 07 model, and wonder if a pair of Renthal bars with the crossbrace might eliminate that? Tried the screen on all settings and find the lowest suits me perfectly, being 5' 8", and better visibility on that section of road just in front. The motor already feels run-in and spins freely very happily.
I generally work on around 260 miles a tank full then taking 18 litres, and my last tankful gave 303.7 miles on 19.37 litres, which by me works out to 71.29 mpg, or 26.54 kpl. 180 of those miles were two-up through South Wales, the rest were quite spirited local riding, certainly not trying to conserve fuel by any means. I think this is a really fabulous motorcycle and look forward to many enjoyable miles.Might just look forward to some summer too after this lot has gone through.
This model stills seems a bit thin on the ground yet, saw another at Frasers in Gloucester where mine came from, plus one in the National Park north of Sydney back in April.
