Use to get 54 mpg on my DR350... Now with the different gearing,
I get about 45-50 on average. Who knows what I'll get with the 435 kit
installed.
Dakota -info:
With my '91 Dakota, I was riding at a local riding area in San Diego.
I got back to my truck before dark, and when I went to put my tailgate
down,
some idiot had stolen my wooden ramp to put the bike back in the truck!! I
was
by myself, and couldn't lift the bike into the truck (or ride it in!). I
ended up
taking off the tailgate, laying it against the bumper, and pushed the bike
over the D O D G E letters to get the bike in the bed. Tied
the
bike down, the put the tailgate back on. Unfortunately on my '95 I have
a
middle taillight, and you can't easily take the tailgate off (without
cutting the
wires or making a 'connector) in such 'emergencies'. :P
