New top? I'm jealous.....Mine -WAS- fairly new, but got ripped when
transported up from California plus it doesn't appear it ever fit properly.
Too bad I didn't notice it before I signed the papers and the transporter
took off. Took excited to drive it! <g>

Bias on a motorcycle? HAHAHAHAHA! Yeah, more bias than how to attach a
roadster trunk gasket...stock vs custom...U20 vs SR20...wheeeeeeeeeee...

Definitely depends on size, style, and $$$. I've owned five Suzuki's
(250cc-1100cc), two Harley's and ridden another two dozen various makes and
models. My current ride ('83 Suzuki GS1100E) gets approx 35mpg, or it did.
Been sitting two years now. Need to rebuild the carbs plus track down a
short that drains the battery every 3 days or less.

Are we having fun yet?

little over 6 gals and get about 38 to 40 mpg on freeway and about 25 around

town. Took the wing to work today, Datsun getting new top put on it (Thank
