maybe need looking at from the other end?
Really we are talking about range, more than fuel quantities...and for that perhaps checking out some more fuel efficient bikes ??? I dont know how, but when I was young, bikes were fuel efficient, as they were designed mostly for cheap transport... nowadays many saloon or hatchback cars do more mpg that bikes of half their size..... perhaps we need a true tourer. maybe abike that will do 80mpg plus, weigh less than a quarter ton, and can be ridden by people who do not have metre long inside leg measurements?
I must confess to gravitating to the new enfield electra with a twenty litre tank...would give 320+ mile range.
