The 2014 on models are not to bad on fuel. Regularly get 60mpg if I keep the revs below 4000rpm, 70mph in top. Even at 80mph on a windy motorway I get 50mpg and have seen a best of 66(wet run from boat to Fortwilliam) and a worst of 35(TT). My best tank range has been 221 miles till the fuel countdown kicks in but its normally 185 miles then I've another 40-45 miles before I'm pushing.
Serving is easy and well within the average person, I can do it all, yes I am an ex fitter but a textile fitter not an aircraft fitter!
Only sore point is back tyre life, adventure style tyres last 6-7 k miles tops and my favourite tyre the Michelin road 5 only lasts 4-5k miles, the price of torque!
