Well, it seems like a perfectly logical move in my opinion. Combining two things we love here of Carpe - what cold be better?

I bet that's delish 😋. Glad it's not a 3vd because it would leak sauce everywhere 😁

Good point.

 

 

If it were a mk2 you’d have to keep topping up the oil.

It's the way they are ridden. I commuted on triggers broom for a few years without using a drop...but take almost any tdm (including 9ers) on. nanook of the North Highland blast.. and tadaaa oil use.

How have you managed that ?

I creep along like an old fart ! Sans permis and 50cc scooters pass me on the road.

 Actually, most of the roads I ride around here are limited to 80 kph which is 3000 rpm in top gear for me. Dual carriageways are 3500 rpm for 90 kph andif I occasionally venture onto a Route Nationale where the limit is 110 kph that's still only 4500 rpm. 

Also, I change my oil every 5000 km or 6 months whichever comes first and use semi synthetic 10w/40

My Mk1 never needed topping up between oil changes (~5000km) for 80.000kms. I normally drive at the highest gear the bike would go happily...
