Hi from UK

[Dunmore]

Hello all. I became the proud owner of an S10 about 1 month and 2000 miles ago.
Almost everything I googled with regards to the S10 brought me to this site, so it
seemed appropriate to register after a month or so of lurking.
Mods so far include an MRA Vario Screen, Altrider Crash Bars and Touratech
Skid plate. Also got a Leo Vince on order Gotta say I am loving this bike and it
already feels like a keeper. Pic attached

I actually first test rode a Silver/Grey S10, but felt the Black looked a bit more rugged. Looking forward to getting the Leo Vince so that its bark matches its bite ... O

Hiya from Northants (touring Europe at the moment, currently in a hotel in northern Germany). The S10 is eating up the miles fully loaded and returning 55+ mpg. Back in blighty this Sunday. ::004::

Hi from Surrey. ::004::
Just got back from a 2 up trip to the Dolomites with an average of 55mpg. ::021::

 

[Dunmore]

Wow .... you guys are doing well on the MPG. I'm getting between 48 and 50mpg

About the same as I got, must be the Dolomite fuel, I never get that when blatting around with mates

I think the low average speeds in the mountains makes a huge difference, on a brisk ride home from work I can drop mine to 45mpg, that's not caning the thing either, just shifting at around 5-6k, overtaking everything in sight and crusing at around 4.5k in top, but the average speed on that journey is about 60% more than what i acheived in the Dolomites where the constant tight bends kept averages around 30mph.
