Ok, now I'm REALLY bored
So, to keep my little grey cells twinkling, what's the LOWEST mileage any has ever got from their Storm?
Mine was 78 miles before red light. Nothing unusual, just loads of cold mornings and shitty traffic
Anyone top that?
Oh, and has anyone out there had an Aprilia Falco before? Thinking it's time for a change

I must ride like a girl, I got 110 without the light coming on once. And thats with a 16l tank so that makes it even worse

I'm not knocking Clarksons time, its the fact he took the best part of 2 whole days to do it!!
He did 10:30 1st lap when he hadn't got a clue what was over crests etc and only managed to get 31 seconds off that in umpteen thousand subsequent laps
Cheers for the BMW thing, I had seen it before.
Dunno if its just the sceptic in me but I think its been speeded up slightly.
Reasons:
1 - The timer clock is added on afterwards, not attached to the bike
2 - In most of the left right sections the flick is too fast
3 - The rate at which the bike accellerates seems too quick (not so much on the slow bits, more noticeable on the high speed 120-150 range)
4 - Some of the sections the speed on the clock doesn't seem right to the speed into corners
Or maybe its just me being an anorak
