I filled it up this morning, 397 miles, only 23 MPG =8-( .

K100 used .

Automatic, no AC  .

Looks like the Injection Pump is going to be swapped out soon .

I'm in Ridgecrest, Ca. to - night, the So. Cal. Cycle TT Ride, 243 miles to - day, much of it with the throttle pinned .

I was able to keep up with the two front runners until some boob in a car refused to yield and I got stuck behind him a while .

The car runs out at 108 MPH, (GPS) @ 10# of boost, humming right along .

I wonder if maybe the governor was stuck before as it used to go faster....

Going up hills it rarely tops 90, most of the time it flattens out @ 88 MPH or slightly more .
