    Drag racing thread, post your MT/FZ 1/4 and 1/8 mile times here.

    Hey everyone, A search didn't reveal any threads specific to 1/4 mile times so I thought I would start one. Anyone taken their MT/FZ to the drags? I know that isn't their design brief but they are still pretty capable for a cheap mid sized bike. There is also some discrepancies with 1/4 mile...

    cost of ownership

    being a saddo with to much time on my hands, just worked that it costs as much in fuel as it does in tyre wear to run the MT! I have used the Bridgestone S20 as the tyres, at £240 a pair and they last 2500 miles =9.6p a mile Petrol at £6 a gallon, and my MT does about 55mpg =10p a mile...
