It really does look massively better.<br /><br />At 5 ft 11.75 in high, I am not a true shortarse. But I have regretted that quarter-inch all my life.

I've had 55 mpg on a longish run and even 47 mpg commuting, so it's slightly better than the Bonnie, even before you factor in the higher speeds.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15743685798068014455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099099432720184584.post-37015523401721112082011-08-11T21:34:12.307+01:002011-08-11T21:34:12.307+01:00The new one does look so much better on that bike....The new one does look so much better on that bike.<br /><br />From a 'green' point of view, it probably adds about 3 mpg for the vertically-challenged.<br /><br />[And no, I'm not suggesting you're a short-@rse.
